Reception

[edit]

The Allmusic review by Sean Westergaard awarded the album 4 stars, stating, "Ayler's time on earth was far too short, but Ribot and company show that this music still lives on in the present moment, not simply as a relic of the past. Spiritual Unity isn't for the timid, but Ayler fans will find a lot to enjoy".[2]
