The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated, "Johnny Hartman's next-to-last album finds the 57-year-old singer still in prime form. His rich baritone voice is joined by a sextet ... The ballads range from slow to a brighter medium-tempo pace, and Hartman shows that he still had it this late in his career". [4]
