Allmusic reviewer Ronnie D. Lankford, Jr. stated: "Morning Mist was one of the small number of albums Wayne recorded as a leader ... Wayne's gentle touch runs toward the cool side of bop, though he's certainly capable of passionate work ... The guitarist renders himself most distinct, surprisingly, when he sets the guitar aside for the banjo ... Perhaps someone on Prestige's folk roster left the banjo behind in the studio, but whatever the reason for the choice, it was an inspired one. Morning Mist is a likable album and guitar lovers unfamiliar with Wayne's gifts will be glad".^[4]
