Allmusic awarded the album 4 stars with its review by Scott Yanow stating, "This is one of a group of Prestige dates by Sonny Criss from the late '60s that featured the altoist elegantly ripping through pop tunes, standing them on their heads and making them into credible vehicles for his dazzling virtuosity".[2]
