Allmusic [2]
The Penguin Guide to Jazz [3]

Allmusic awarded the album 4 stars stating "Hank Jones is often taken for granted because of his seemingly effortless ability at the piano, but this 1979 trio session with bassist George Duvivier and drummer Alan Dawson (both of whom are also top-flight players) finds him at the top of his game".[2] The Penguin Guide to Jazz described this and I Remember You from the same label as having "a soft and occasionally plangent quality which is highly appealing".[3]
