Reception

Allmusic's Richard S. Ginell said: "another Bob Porter-produced soul-jazz cooker, effortlessly suggesting tenor battles of the past. They are a most compatible duo, with Johnson displaying a slightly lighter, more overt rhythm & blues tinge, and their sure-footed note selection makes them a pleasure to hear". In JazzTimes Bill Milkowski called it a "spirited session" and "superb recording". All About Jazz noted "Beneath the emotionally charged surface of both Johnson and Holloway’s playing lies a wellspring of intelligence and good taste.... the septuagenarians tackle a diverse program that refutes the notion that there are artistic limitations in sustaining a groove".
