On AllMusic Scott Yanow states, "Pianist Freddie Redd's first recording in eight years is quite intriguing. Redd is matched with seven diverse players on six of his compositions, most of which are little-known. The music is high-quality hard bop, and the fresh material inspires the musicians. Recommended".[5]
