Reception

The Allmusic review by Thom Jurk awarded the album 3½ stars stating "Heritage is a wonderful set, and should be revisited by anyone who either missed or was put off by it initially. For the new generation of jazz and funk heads, this one is right up your alley -- these are some dark, freaky, and delicious grooves that bear further investigation".[2]
