The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated "Ira Sullivan's quintet played at a Charlie Parker Memorial concert in Chicago on Mar. 12, 1962 and the results (six selections) were originally released on a single LP. The release of this double CD greatly expanded the program. ... Overall, a fine bop set".[4]
