The album failed to enter the charts, despite the band performing their first and only tour of the United Kingdom to promote its release, in 1991.

Critical reception edit

Trouser Press wrote that "[Kate] St. John’s oboe and soprano sax is an effective antidote to blandness, but the languid material is almost characterless, relegating the album to handsomely accomplished ambience for the old at heart."[9] The Globe and Mail wrote that the album "harks back to the days of the British progressives without specifically copying any one band."[10]
