AllMusic awarded the album 3 stars with its review by Eugene Chadbourne stating, "The lion's share of recordings by this artist are in a piano trio setting, and this mid-'60s session finds him working with one of the best combinations he ever had. ...Vocal performances are smooth as always, although the set does not contain any totally classic numbers".
