The Bay State Banner wrote that "the bright comps and nifty solos of pianist Dolo Coker spice up the session, but the rhythm section work is very basic—sort of all let's wrap this up and pick up the union check-caliber."[6]

AllMusic reviewer Scott Yanow stated: "Trumpeter Harry "Sweets" Edison and tenor saxophonist Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis always made a potent pair. They both possessed immediately identifiable sounds, were veterans of Count Basie's Orchestra and never had any difficulty swinging. The repertoire of this Edison album is not too creative ... However, the playing of the principals holds one's interest throughout".[4]
