From Billboard - April 6, 1968: Herbie Mann doesn't let up. His jazz work is a growing thing and each new album presents exciting musical surprises. Among the surprises in this LP, recorded live at the Village Theater, are a 10-minute-plus treatment of Lennon and McCartney's "Norwegian Wood" and Rufus Hartley's "Flute Bag" featuring the composer on bagpipes.
