In his review for AllMusic, Thom Jurek stated, "On Visions of a New World, Smith, accompanied by his working unit the Cosmic Echoes, digs deeper into the soul-jazz vein that he had begun exploring ... In 1975, Smith was looking for a smoother, more soulful groove than he had displayed previously ... Despite these fiery players, the music here is strictly a late-night seduction/meditation groove ... Not exactly a flawless bid for Smith, but there are some shining moments nonetheless".[3]
