Reception

The Allmusic review stated "Although they were from different musical generations (Benny Carter was born ten years before Dizzy Gillespie), it is little wonder that the swing altoist and the bop trumpeter could match up so well on this sextet session; they were quite compatible". [3] The Penguin Guide to Jazz wrote of "much polite deference, some cheerful banter but not a great deal of classic music". [4]
