With a 4-out-of-5-star rating, Johnathan Widran of AllMusic wrote, "Having been a top notch producer for such hot R&B acts as Stephanie Mills, Deniece Williams, and Jeffrey Osborne throughout the '80s, it comes as no surprise that Duke would deliver such a powerhouse of dance funk instrumentals towards the end of that decade. Being so pop oriented, however, what comes as a pleasant surprise is just how much room is left for Duke to display his sense of improvisation on the many keyboards he uses here." [3]
