From Billboard - June 7, 1969: Chicago's John Klemmer is a powerful newcomer to the Jazz scene. On this LP he is aided by both an excellent backup which are used with discretion and hence to great musical advantage. Two of the most commercial cuts are his interpretations of the Beatles' "Hey Jude" and Jimi Hendrix, "Third Stone From The Sun," but his own compositions which comprise the rest of the album, show his talent for writing is equal to his playing of the tenor sax
