The Allmusic review by Michael G. Nastos states "Out of Nowhere -- as apropos a title for this CD as could be -- is not well recorded, thin and distant to be kind, unbalanced and unprofessionally reproduced to be accurate ... This is strictly an historical document, for completists only, unfortunately flawed, and far from essential". Although most of blame can be laid on Chet's cornet itself, rather than a thin recording of it, his performance was transcribed and included in The Chet Baker Collection [4]
