The album was positively reviewed by Richard S. Ginell at Allmusic who wrote that Montgomery "has more than enough of the solid musicianship and abundant technique that seems to go with the territory in this series", though Ginell felt that Montgomery's "solo ruminations, however accomplished, aren't all that compelling here". Ginell highlighted "Who Cares" and "Money Blues" as stand out tracks. [2] The authors of The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings called the album "the best introduction" to Montgomery's music, and stated that his "delicate but insistent touch is just right for the acoustic."
