The Penguin Guide to Jazz	[3]

The Penguin Guide to Jazz states, "Jones comping is inch-perfect throughout and Clarke is right on the case, often following Adderley outside the basic count for a phrase or two". ^[3] The AllMusic review stated, "His pithy, pungent trumpet and cornet work is effective in a hard bop context, although his own work outside his brother's group has never seemed quite as effective". ^[2]
