The Los Angeles Times said that Roney's "muted solo on Bill Evans' 'Blue in Green' and his infectious explorations on a blues called 'Float' show where he is heading."[5]

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated, "The music is essentially advanced hard bop, with Roney as usual often sounding a bit tonewise like his hero Miles Davis".[4]
