Allmusic[3]

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow states "Throughout Henderson plays in prime form and he takes the majority of the solo space, making this CD an excellent example of his talents".[3] All About Jazz contributor Bob Jacobson noted "While the influences of Miles and Freddie Hubbard are demonstrated, Henderson is definitely his own man and a master at that. The ensemble work is strong and swinging throughout. ...If you're looking for an album which breaks new ground this isn't it. Otherwise Inspiration satisfies on every level".[4]
