Ken Dryden of Allmusic states:
Giuffre switches off between clarinet, tenor sax, and baritone sax between pieces, all of which are spacious while never venturing so far out as to lose the listener's attention... any fan of Jimmy Giuffre's unique blend of cool jazz should snap up this record without hesitation the moment it is found.
