Reception

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4½ stars and states "His light touch and perfect taste are very much present along with a steady stream of purposeful single-note lines that are full of surprising twists... this recommended set (a definitive Wynton Kelly release) showcases magical trio performances". The All About Jazz Review by David Rickert said "Kelly was never in better form than on this album. A great piano trio date".
