AllMusic awarded the album 3 stars, with Ron Wynn calling it an "exceptional late '70s trio date, with pianist Tommy Flanagan displaying the hard bop proficiency that's been taken for granted" and stating, "His lines, phrasing, and creative solos, plus his interaction with bassist George Mraz and drummer Elvin Jones, won the album rave reviews".[3]
