TheAllmusic review by Stephen Cook stated, "If an album ever betrayed Cal Tjader's affinity for former bossGeorge Shearing's ultra-smooth cocktail style, thenWarm Wave would be it ... this is less standard Latin lounge Tjader and more an analog toJackie Gleason's polished easy-listening sound. Tjader's solos are so smooth, in fact, that they practically disappear into Claus Ogerman's opaque arrangements. If you are in the business of collecting classic lounge records, this rates as a good one".[2]
