AllMusic reviewer Scott Yanow stated: "Throughout the often emotional date, Helen Merrill is heard in top form, giving plenty of feeling to the lyrics while leaving room for the guest trumpeters".[1] The Penguin Guide to Jazz described it as a "classic session [... that] acted as a superb vehicle for Merrill's individual approach to time".[2]
