Critical reception
The Allmusic review awarded the album 4 stars stating "Jamal Plays Jamal epitomizes the commercial leanings and pop textures that dominate Ahmad Jamal's mid-'70s fusion efforts for the 20th Century label. Though his funkiest and most accessible recording to date, it nevertheless retains the melodic invention and intricacy of his more conventional jazz records".[1]

gollark: Yes, I like being able to have a working terminal and stuff on my phone. Apple also limit you to only their app store, which is highly æææææææææææ.
gollark: I mostly just end up buying very cheap phones and replacing them every ~2 years.
gollark: In some areas, not others.
gollark: Neither of those do *matter* much for normal use, though, really. Unless you like compiling things/gaming on your phone, or are very audiophile.
gollark: I have no idea about that, but given the lack of headphone jacks, meh.
