Allmusic's Alex Henderson said: "McGriff was 64 when this CD was recorded in 2000 and, at that age, he wasn't trying to reinvent the wheel. But his fans expected him to provide soul-jazz/hard bop that was solid and consistent; Feelin' It definitely fits that description".[5] Douglas Payne noted "McGriff sounds ok here, but he's sounded this way for years. There's absolutely nothing wrong with what happens here. There's absolutely nothing memorable about it either".[7] In JazzTimes, Owen Cordle wrote "I hope there’ll always be a place for this kind of music in the record industry and on the scene. It’s a reservoir of the right stuff".[8]
