Professional ratings Review scores Source Rating Allmusic [ 4]
TheAllmusic site awarded the album 4 stars stating "Gerry Mulligan's 1959 studio date with Johnny Hodges is one of the most satisfying sessions of his various meetings with different saxophonists for Verve... Throughout the date, the two saxophonists blend beautifully and complement one another's efforts, even though this was their only opportunity to record together in the studio".[ 4]
