Reception

In his review for in the May 9, 1963 issue of Down Beat magazine, jazz critic Pete Welding had this to say: "Spurred on by an appreciative audience present during the recording, the Adderley group has produced a collection that is both stimulating and accessible. There is plenty of good, strong blowing, and to this is added the interest of artful, well-constructed arrangements that enhance the tunes and strengthen the solos."

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4 stars and states: "Adderley's greatest band — his sextet with cornetist Nat Adderley, Yusef Lateef (on tenor, flute and oboe), pianist Joe Zawinul, bassist Sam Jones, and drummer Louis Hayes — is featured on such exciting numbers as 'Jessica's Day,' Jones' 'Unit 7,' and 'The Jive Samba.' A special treat of this live date is hearing the leader's introductory words to several of the songs". The Penguin Guide to Jazz awarded the album 3 stars stating "on favourite turf in San Francisco, the band are in good fettle ".
