The Allmusic review states, "Goin' to the Meetin showcases Horace Parlan in a way even his Blue Note records didn't. While Davis appears to be the leader because of his beat generation bluesed-out swing in the solos and brief melodic statements, it's Parlan, on the title track, "Pass the Hat," and "Night and Day," who carries the tunes and turns them into a very sophisticated and subtle kind of jazz that allows for both the simplicity of a raw-toned, grooved-out blues statement and simultaneously created the space for a harmonic improvisation that employed counterpoint and intervallic architecture for the rhythm section. Parlan's own soloing is nothing less than soulful, but it is considerably more than soul he's playing. Moreover, Parlan is laying down the sophistication evidenced in the post-bop and modal playing of both Bill Evans and Horace Silver".[3]
