Reception

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated that "one imagines that this approach works better in concert than on record. There are some strong moments on this hard-to-find LP (such as Bowie's trumpet-drums duet with Phillip Wilson on 'Duke's Fantasy') but this is a hit-and-miss affair".[1]

Spin wrote, "Brass Fantasy weaves between the more billowy arrangements of 'Duke's Fantasy' and the title track, and rave-ups like 'Thriller'. The music, like his attire, is adorned in ways that keep you wondering, 'Is Bowie serious?'"[2]
