Writing for AllMusic, Scott Yanow described the album as a "transition of sorts" for the artist, and noted some traces of her earlier M-Base style. Overall, he called the album "Interesting but not overly memorable".[2] John Fordham of The Guardian stated: "This is Cassandra Wilson in 1990, two years after her powerful standards album Blue Skies, and three before she turned to the rootsy, blues-based folk-jazz she still pursues variations on today."[4]
