Tanjah (album)

AllMusic awarded the album 4½ stars, with its review by Scott Yanow stating: "The weak points are Weston's use of the Fender Rhodes on a few songs (it waters down his personality) and Candido's chanting during an otherwise exciting version of 'Hi-Fly,' but those are easily compensated for by the infectious calypso 'Jamaican East' and Liston's inventive reworking of 'Little Niles.' Recommended." == Track listing ==
