Reception

Allmusic awarded the album 3 stars with the review by Scott Yanow stating, "Most records by pianist Junior Mance are well worth getting, but this obscure Atlantic album was a bit of a misfire. One of the problems is that on three of the eight songs, Mance switches to harpsichord, which doesn't work too well".
