AllMusic reviewer Scott Yanow stated "What It's All About is swinging, building up solos to potentially ferocious levels and going for broke. That was always the philosophy that Roy Eldridge followed and, even though it was rather late in his career by the time he recorded this Pablo set, he was still pushing himself".[4]

gollark: Macron has dependent types, so obviously reification is the process of defining a variable.
