The contemporaneous DownBeat reviewer praised the playing of both Johnsons, but commented that there was little of interest in the musical arrangements used.[4] Scott Yanow of AllMusic states, "One of tenor saxophonist Budd Johnson's best showcases, Let's Swing! finds him featured in a quintet ... Throughout, Johnson sounds both modern, as if he had come of age as one of the "cool school," and timeless, since he was a major player by the mid-'30s. A fine set".[3]
