Allmusic[4]

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated, "There have been so many releases of live concert performances by Duke Ellington's orchestra that it is easy to become blase about them. ... Hot Summer Dance features the 1960 Duke Ellington Orchestra performing their usual repertoire from that era ... It may not be essential, but Ellington collectors will enjoy this".[4]
