"Three hundred and eighty five words into this review and we're only halfway through the album. On "Spiral" Benjamin mixes it up with fellow alto Steve Wilson over a Caribbean Marcus Gilmore beat. "Om Shanti," "Alabama," and "Acknowledgment," righteously follow, and from here on out all you need to know is that jazz's future is in sure, firm, and confident hands".

"Benjamin beautifully channels the spirit of the Coltranes, demonstrating versatility and respect for jazz tradition that is revealing considering her main gig is leading her own soul-based band, Lakecia Benjamin and Soul Squad, reflecting the music of James Brown, Maceo Parker, Sly & the Family Stone and the Meters as well as classic jazz. This recording will certainly have many mainstream jazz critics and fans taking greater notice".

"This month's outstanding new album is by New York saxophonist Lakecia Benjamin, who was mentored by Gary Bartz and has performed with Gregory Porter and Alicia Keys. [It's] an epic opus inspired by John and Alice Coltrane's music and finds Benjamin surrounded by a vast supporting cast ... Its vibe, as you'd expect with its Coltrane theme, is deeply spiritual".
