The Allmusic review by Stephen Cook awarded the album 4½ stars, stating: "Soul Sauce is one of the highlights from Tjader's catalog with its appealing mixture of mambo, samba, bolero, and boogaloo styles... an album full of smart arrangements, subtly provocative vibe solos, and intricate percussion backing."[2]

gollark: It's great!
gollark: I would happily *not* help "improve text to speech" stuff if it means being CONSTANTLY LISTENED TO.
gollark: Oh, and being paid for it.
gollark: Ideally people actually submitting it *willingly*, and with data which isn't stupidly personal.
gollark: Lots of money being spent on it? Competent employees? Good AI research?
