Scott Yanow of Allmusic states, "Vibraphonist Lem Winchester's final recording was made just three months before his accidental death, which occurred when he was demonstrating a gun trick. Although originally recorded for the Prestige subsidiary Moodsville (a series that emphasized slow, melodic ballads), there is a fair amount of variety on Winchester's last effort. ... Winchester mixes medium-tempo performances with slower numbers and shows that his style was growing away from his original Milt Jackson influence".[5] All About Jazz called it "an enjoyable session" noting "Ballads and relaxed tempos prevail, and Winchester is consisently [sic] laid back.".[6]
