AllMusic rated the album with 4 stars noting: "Feel is what dictates the material and its execution on this set, without unnecessary attention paid to crowd or recording apparatus. This is one [of] the most intimate jazz shows captured on tape during the 1960s. It gives record buyers the sound of a band in full possession of their considerable capabilities, celebrating them in a relaxed environment, playing their own brand of grooved-out '60s jazz". [3]
