The Toronto Star wrote that Ford "heads a septet that plays with the furious power of a big band, often employing three- and four-part harmonies on his eight strong compositions."[5] The AllMusic review by Ron Wynn stated: "Nice session matching tenor saxophone standout Ricky Ford with crew of fiery trumpet and trombone players ... Ford was a young lion back in the '70s, when there was no hype. He's now an experienced, skilled veteran."[3]
