Reception[]

Peter Margasak of Chicago Reader stated "On these early recordings with Peacock, Masabumi Kikuchi hadn't quite achieved the Spartan sound he eventually mastered, but he was on his way, playing mercurial lines amid Peacock's churning patterns. The 1971 album Voices, a trio session with alternating drummers Masahiko Togashi and Hiroshi Murakami, has been stuck in my CD player for days. It occupies the same meditative, questing terrain explored by Paul Bley before its release and by Keith Jarrett after. I'm a sucker for its elegant sense of dynamics, which gives empty space a crucial role in the arrangements and improvisations."^[4]
