Tom Moon, in his book 1,000 Recordings to Hear Before You Die, wrote: "Beginning with a spry romp through Coltrane's 'Impressions,' Consciousness offers blindingly brightyet never glibMartino solos, each a marvel of structure. To hear an improviser in full control of his resources, check out the curvy bossa nova 'Along Came Betty,' then a pensive solo guitar reading of Joni Mitchell's 'Both Sides Now.'"
Qu-àûrt-¬µt recordings from what was undoubtedly a virtusio guÄî?±t-àûrÄî?±Äî?Øt who really should be as appreciated as such contemporaies such as George Benson. "WÄî?±ll-?¶w," a d-àûrk, understated g-¬µm -àûnd his take on J-?¶nÄî?± MÄî?±tÄî?Öh-¬µll'Äî?Ø "B-?¶th SÄî?±d-¬µÄî?Ø Now." remains a sublime re-interpretation.
