The Allmusic review by Rick Anderson states "certainly worth hearing, if not quite essential. Baker's accompanists provide most of the truly transcendent musical moments ... Overall, this is an album his established fans will enjoy, but those looking for a good entry into his voluminous catalog will do best to start with the 1950s recordings that made him a star".[2]

gollark: I imagine shopping spreads it a lot.
gollark: Oh, it definitely slows down spread. I'm just saying that it doesn't *stop* it, which is why you still have new cases.
gollark: If everyone were isolated in airtight chambers and never left for probably a month or so you would get rid of viruses. But we can't do that, unfortunately.
