Reception
The Allmusic review by Tony Wilds said "The In Instrumentals does not stick to the truly "in" mod tunes, nor does it do much with its standard pop and rock tunes. ...let's face it: the music manager of New York's Playboy Club may have been "in," but he wasn't exactly hip, at least not on this album".
