AllMusic's Scott Yanow described the album as an "excellent straight-ahead quintet set" and "high-quality hard bop".[2] The Penguin Guide to Jazz rates the album three and a half stars and describes Land as an "underrated composer with a deep feeling for the blues" and states that The Fox, "tricky and fugitive as much of it is, must be thought his finest moment".[5]
