Scott Yanow of AllMusic said "The fact that he was able to come up with fresh statements on these warhorses (and still stay melodic) says a great deal about Cables's inventiveness."[4] The Penguin Guide to Jazz wrote that the album was "richly sophisticated, and the solo performances of 'Embraceable You' and 'Someone to Watch over Me' are excellent examples of his innate rhythmic sense."
