Ken Dryden of AllMusic stated "This 1995 session for Steeplechase is one of the rare times where he had a chance to record as a solo pianist".[3] The Penguin Guide to Jazz described the album as "an immaculate solo performance that has melody at a premium and never for a moment drifts off into chordal side-roads."[4]
