Allmusic[4]

The Allmusic review by Tony Wilds observed "A strict surf album this is not, despite the packaging and a few titles. More is really the classic, best-selling album launching Kai Winding's mod sound. Actually, it is Claus Ogerman and Winding's sound, helped out in no small part by Kenny Burrell on guitar. Except when obviously imitating standard surf guitar, Burrell provides texture, specifically the "water sound" popularized by Vinnie Bell. Within this warm bath, as it were, the piercing electronic ondioline shimmers icily. The rhythm is basic "big beat" rock, and melody never really has a chance to escape blues figures, which is just as well".[4]
