The Penguin Guide to Jazz	[6]

AllMusic awarded the album 4 stars noting "The music is unassuming, without theatrics or extended technique, and as a result may get lost in the shuffle. This is, however, a polished and pleasing set by first-rate talent, and it achieves its goal of exciting, mainstream fare with a 1970s flair". ^[5]
