The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow states: "The matchup of the cool-toned trumpeter Chet Baker with the advanced but equally mellow-toned altoist Lee Konitz (in a pianoless quartet with bassist Michael Moore and drummer Beaver Harris) was a very logical combination. .... Baker and Konitz very much inspired each other on this frequently superb and exciting set". [4]
