The Bay State Banner wrote that the album "shows how strong and inspired Griffin can be in a quartet setting, and how dominant his soloing remains."[7]

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "Johnny Griffin recorded this studio album during his first visit to the United States in 15 years. ... Long one of the underrated masters, Johnny Griffin is heard at the peak of his powers on this modern bop session".[5]
