The Penguin Guide to Jazz states "We Remember Cannon is pretty much state of the art for the late 80s band". [2] In his review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow stated "Cornetist Nat Adderley is in better shape than usual on this spirited live date with his quintet ... there are plenty of witty and informative verbal introductions by Adderley to the audience about the songs, and the rhythm section is quite complementary. A worthy effort". [3]
