Reception

In his review for Allmusic, Ken Dryden notes that "Pianist Uri Caine's work is always intriguing, but this CD is something very different. Sidewalks of New York comes off like the soundtrack to an as yet unmade documentary about Tin Pan Alley at the turn of the century, complete with sound effects of horses and people on the street, folks celebrating in a rowdy saloon, and so on". On All About Jazz C. Michael Bailey said "The Sidewalks of New York is an impressionistic documentary of late 19th and early 20th century popular music. Not music of the 1920s, the music of the pre -1920s. Each piece flows into the next, often with the background of street and bar noises, all providing a ambiance of a bustling city's life".
