AllMusic reviewer Thom Owens stated: "Supported by his longtime accompanist Sonny Terry, as well as second guitarist Benny Foster, Brownie turns in a nicely understated record that's distinguished by surprisingly harmonically complex and jazzy guitar work".[3]

Production
gollark: Weird. Why would they *want* more traffic?
gollark: Although I'd still expect a lot of listening to be done with screen off etc. And smart software would stop the video stream then.
gollark: They have actual video on by default? Strange.
gollark: It sounds like your CPU was just not boosting somehow. Probably a heating or configuration issue.
gollark: Is it? I mean, most people *don't* stream things with video, so you're only transferring a few hundred kbps at most, which is basically nothing.
