Reception
Allmusic reviewer Scott Yanow stated "The spirited tenor (who straddled the boundaries between swing and early R&B) is in prime early form with his sextet on a variety of basic material, much of it blues-oriented. ... This very accessible music is both danceable and full of exciting performances that were formerly rare".[5]
