Critical reception
Phil Freeman, writing on Stereogum's "Ugly Beauty: The Month in Jazz" column, called the album "harmonically complex, melodically subtle hard bop in the spirit of the late ’80s/early ’90s Young Lions era, albeit more interested in collective virtuosity than skyrocketing fireworks displays by the leader."[3] Thom Jurek, writing for AllMusic, gave the album four stars, stating that "New Gospel Revisited showcases Hill as a deeply committed jazzman leading an inspired band that fires on all cylinders."[2]
