Allmusic's Scott Yanow noted "Some songs only use one or two of the horns, but each player gets his spot. Edison was very consistent during the era and Forrest has a few muscular tenor solos. Fans of small group swing and drummers who want to hear Jones in a couple of well-recorded sets will enjoy this".[3] On All About Jazz, David Rickert wrote "Vamp 'Til Ready, is an informal jam session featuring an outstanding line up".[4]

gollark: This is a funny and yet vaguely horrifying consequence of several problems in my code and the design of email.
gollark: Oh, this is a cool idea.
