In his review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow states "The music (two standards and four originals) is essentially straightahead bop and generally swings quite hard."[2]
The Penguin Guide to Jazz notes "There are atonal and polytonal episodes on Nicky's Tune" and describes his Delmark albums as "two powerful records by an almost forgotten figure."[3]
