The Allmusic review by Rick Anderson stated "The music gathered and interpreted on this thoroughly winning disc all comes from a period before the emergence of the big-band jazz sound, a time when horn sections were smaller, rhythm sections less strictly codified, and the jazz sound itself much less regimented and refined. Just about every track is full of those kinds of musical treats and surprises, and it all adds up to a relentlessly rollicking good time." The album peaked at #10 on the Billboard jazz charts in April 2011.[3][4]
