The Jazzreview review by Paul J. Youngman awarded the album 4 stars, observing that it "starts out dark and deep with a hard bop sensibility (and) progresses through the blues", and particularly lauding Magris's keyboard skills.[5] The All About Jazz review by Dan McClenaghan awarded the album 4 stars, and ranked the album "on the top shelf, gleaming with the best of them."[4]
