Writing for Allmusic, critic Scott Yanow wrote in his review: "A great guitarist who was very versatile (jazz, country, rock) yet very underrated, the late Lenny Breau was at his best in informal settings where he could stretch out... These well-recorded selections feature Breau at his best... Easily recommended to Lenny Breau fans and listeners wanting to discover a major guitarist."[2]

gollark: I don't mean any instance of your mind is going to magically synchronize data with other ones (no), but that nobody seems to have a consistent idea of what consciousness is.
gollark: You can't actually know that.
