Allmusic awarded the album 3 stars, stating: "All in all, an excellent offering from an undisputed master."[3] On All About Jazz John Kelman said: "Jones is as elegant here as always. While totally steeped in the mainstream, he manages to buck convention in the subtlest of ways... Familiar? Yes, but with a sense of adventure that retains a freshness and undeniable sense of discovery."[4]
