The Penguin Guide to Jazz states the set "'has a leftovers feel". [2] In his review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow stated "Cornetist Nat Adderley is in excellent form on his live sextet set but he is somewhat overshadowed by his two altoists ... The long solos are consistently inventive and colorful, making this an easily recommended Nat Adderley CD". [3]
