The Allmusic review by Stephen Cook awarded the album 4 stars and states: "Everyone is in top form on a varied set.... One of the highlights from Adderley's hard bop prime".[4]The Penguin Guide to Jazz awarded the album 3 stars stating "Portrait of Cannonball (which includes three alternate takes on the CD issue) finds Blue Mitchell taking some welcome limelight – though he sounds no more facile than the oft-maligned Nat - and an early glimpse of Bill Evans finding his way through "Nardis"".[2]
