Reception
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "In the late 1950s, Prestige started a new subsidiary (Moodsville) that was designed to provide mood music for courting couples... Due to the overly relaxed nature of much of this music and the lack of variety, this is not one of the more essential Red Garland sets, but it is still generally enjoyable."[1]
