Reviews
The album was reviewed by Steve Hecox in Option magazine who was of the opinion that the album was "Yet another Norman Granz "let's put these guys together and see what happens" session."[3] Hecox felt that the results were successful as they played to the performer's strengths with Peterson using his usual reliable three-piece rhythm section, and Eddie Vinson providing an instrumental session in which he stuck to alto sax.[3]
