The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 3 stars stating "Pianist Gene Harris, bassist Andy Simpkins and drummer Bill Dowdy are in top form performing their brand of funky jazz, which left plenty of room for inventive solos along with the percolating grooves... Well worth searching for".[3]

gollark: We get taught one for GCSE biology but I think it's not very good as it's quite vague and sort of defines fire and stars as life.
gollark: Well, I'll rephrase that as "I have not heard satisfying and rigorous definitions of it".
gollark: The problem is that people can't seem to come up with... satisfying and rigorous definitions.
gollark: No.
gollark: Life is very loosely defined. Society is... a... group of... people...?
