In his review onAllMusic, Michael G. Nastos stated "Mainstream, straight-ahead, well-played jazz is alive and well, courtesy of pianistRob Schneiderman and his very fine quintet ofRalph Moore (tenor sax),Brian Lynch (trumpet),Peter Washington (bass), andLewis Nash (drums). They collectively coax and conjure the feeling of the 1950s' Blue Note-Riverside hard-to-post bop sound that remains timeless and forever swinging. The leader wrote five of these nine selections with this era in mind, while also recognizing that being a modernist doesn't necessarily mean throwing traditions overboard."^[3]
