In a review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow wrote: "this two-LP set will be well worth searching for. These six performances from the Vanguard do not duplicate any other recordings. There are two more runthroughs on 'Impressions,' a 15-minute 'Chasin' Another Trane,' 'Greensleeves,' 'Miles' Mode' and a strange version of 'Naima' in which Coltrane purposely plays the melody sideways... This two-fer is rounded out by two previously unissued performances... from the Africa/Brass sessions in which Coltrane is backed by a medium-size orchestra for some stirring music."[2]
