Reception.
The "Ottawa Citizen" deemed the album "a straightforward hard bop collection with compositions that come mostly from the mid-50s." "The Indianapolis Star" wrote that, "though the arrangements are based on originals recorded by his father's generation, this doesn't seem like a ghost-band venture."
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "Drummer T.S. Monk's debut as a leader in jazz found him discarding his earlier R&amp;B-ish music in favor of heading an impressive hard bop revival group ... The T.S. Monk Sextet was just beginning its long life with this recording; all of its CDs are highly recommended to hard bop fans".
