In his review on Allmusic, Scott Yanow states "After nearly a quarter-century of other musical experiences, he sat in with his friend, organist Mike LeDonne, in 2006 and enjoyed returning to the basic blues, ballads and standards. Their 2007 recording features Snidero playing more boppish and a bit more basic than one might expect, perfectly fitting into the idiom. He caresses the melodies of ballads and brings out the bluish side of the faster tunes". [3] In JazzTimes, Mike Shanley wrote "Alto saxophonist Jim Snidero’s beefy tone and fleet attack evokes Cannonball Adderley in many places on Tippin' . At the same time, Snidero takes these comparisons and places them in a context that contrasts with Adderley’s setting of choice: the organ trio" [5] On All About Jazz, John Barron called it " a spirited session of burners, ballads and blues" stating "There's nothing startling about Tippin' . It's just hip, swinging music performed exceptionally well. Snidero and crew leave a soulful impression". [6]
