In a review for AllMusic, Michael G. Nastos wrote: "It would be difficult to pick a favorite or a clunker, and you'd be hard-pressed to find anything more inspired or another project loaded with this much talent. Everybody knows Johnny Hodges and this stellar collection of all-stars, because they are absolutely the best at what they do."[1]

The authors of The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings awarded the album a full 4 stars, calling it "essential."[3]
