AllMusic[4]

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated "Rodney was inspired in the setting, which featured recent originals rather than bop standards ... Stimulating music".[4] On All About Jazz, Jim Santella noted "Red Rodney’s 1980 sessions at The Village Vanguard marks the beginning of his comeback and finds the leader’s trumpet work in fine form. Two experienced horn players and a young rhythm section made for a strong program with hard bop drama and pure musical ballad sentiment ... After a long career with several disturbing setbacks, it’s nice to remember that Red Rodney succeeded in the end by passing the torch on triumphantly to the next generation".[5]
