  The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow states, "The music overall on this CD reissue is quite enjoyable and Sims, Cohn and Steward show how much they had grown during the previous decade".
  
  In a review for All About Jazz, Marc Myers called the recording "a superb album that shows off the enormous reed work of four seasoned swingers," and wrote: "The saxophonists sounded as one together but went their merry way when playing alone... The emphasis on blended harmonies and Young-like saxes playing together would become the basis for West Coast jazz just a few years later."
  
  A reviewer for Billboard commented: "The blowing is the thing, and the fellows... give fine accountings of themselves."
