Reception

In his review on Allmusic, Scott Yanow states that "Willis "Gator" Jackson's series of albums for Muse during the 1970s helped keep alive the soulful, tough tenor tradition of Illinois Jacquet, Gene Ammons, and Houston Person. For this particular set, the participation of guitarist Pat Martino made the date more notable than it might have been."
