Reception
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated "Other than a silly rendition of Ellington's 'Blue Bubbles' and an adventurous interpretation of 'Snibor,' the selections are played with respect and great understanding of the somewhat forgotten style. None of the modern musicians sound as if swing were only their second language, making the continually surprising set a major success."[2] The album peaked at #4 on the Billboard jazz charts in February 1997.[3]
