Allmusic says "Despite the many changes in personnel, the music is pretty consistent, with basic swinging originals, blues and ballads all heard in equal proportion. As usual, Johnny Hodges ends up as the main star".[2] In JazzTimes, Stanley Dance called it a "happy, unpretentious set".[3]

gollark: TOO LATE!
gollark: I actually really like the changes apart from> Replaced enderdragon fight with 5-minute livestream and musical number> Added VBA scripting> Added the java marketplace> Added a way to earn Minecoins ingame> Performance deteriorations
gollark: If you need that ,mods .
gollark: <@261243340752814085> Put them in a bunch of chests and use artillery on them. Place them and shoot them. Use them as walls. Put them round a biter nest and nuke the whole thing. Just place them somewhere random where they won't do anything. Be creative!
gollark: Hold right click on them <@261243340752814085>.
