The Allmusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 3½ stars and stated "It is the lost gem in his catalog and showcases him in one of the most provocative quintets in his career; it feels quite directly like an extension of Patton's late Blue Note period on titles like Memphis to New York Spirit and Accent on the Blues... This is a necessary Patton date for fans".[1] The All About Jazz review by Jerry D'Souza stated "Patton had a strong band with him on this record... Time has not effaced nor worn the impact of this music. It is still relevant".[2]
