Reception
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated the album was "performed before an invited and enthusiastic studio audience, who provided atmosphere. Babs Gonzales introduces several of the numbers, but proves to be an unnecessary presence. However, Griffin in particular plays quite well in this loose straight-ahead setting"Yanow, S. Allmusic Review accessed October 24, 2012
