The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 2 stars and stated "despite some strong moments, the date (which resulted in no real hits) does not quite reach the heights of A New Perspective although it has plenty of interesting moments".[3] The Penguin Guide to Jazz noted the album's popularity and its being a precursor of Byrd's further success in the following decade, but described it as "dispensable".[4]
