The editors of AllMusic awarded the album a full five stars, and Scott Yanow wrote: "Although not as essential from the jazz standpoint as Billy Eckstine's earlier big-band dates, this two-fer features the singer at the peak of his powers."[1]
Max Morath, author of The NPR Curious Listener's Guide to Popular Standards, listed the album as among "Billy's Best," calling it "fine."[3]
