The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated "Drummer T.S. Monk's debut as a leader in jazz found him discarding his earlier R&B-ish music in favor of heading an impressive hard bop revival group ... The T.S. Monk Sextet was just beginning its long life with this recording; all of its CDs are highly recommended to hard bop fans".[2]
