| AllMusic |   [3] |
AllMusic reviewer Scott Yanow stated "All 11 of the songs are somewhat obscure and therefore fresh Carter compositions and Dizzy Gillespie sits in with the group for three songs. ... the solo star throughout is the ageless Benny Carter, who at the age of 80 still seemed to be improving".[3]
