Allmusic[5]

The Allmusic review states "Baritonist Pepper Adams gets first billing on this record but he is actually only on four of the seven cuts. James L. Dean (who is heard on tenor, alto and clarinet) organized the session and it is largely his date despite the presence of Adams, tenor-saxophonist Frank Foster and a fine (if obscure) rhythm section. ... Overall the modern hard bop music is quite successful, but this album should have come out under Dean's name.".[5]
