  Allmusic awarded the album 3 stars stating "this trio, which worked as a rhythm section together on countless music dates of many styles during the 1950s and 1960s, obviously had what it took. But Jones is stuck on a campy honky tonk piano instead of a grand piano on the first half of the LP, so the performances tend to sound a lot like the cornucopia of similar records made by pianists not in the leader's league. But the trio makes its best effort and succeeds in spite of the inferior keyboard".
