| AllMusic |   [4] |
Scott Yanow of AllMusic states, "this LP finds the great tenor being weighed down by Glenn Osser's muzaky arrangements for the strings. Since Hawkins does little other than caress the melodies, nothing significant happens, making this one of the most dispensable Coleman Hawkins ever".[4]
