Reception
The Allmusic review by Ken Dryden awarded the album 4 stars and states "It is peculiar that Verve shelved the results for over a decade before issuing any of the music, though it may have been felt that Getz and Evans hadn't had enough time to achieve the desired chemistry, though there are memorable moments".
