Allmusic reviewer by Richard S. Ginell said "Recorded live in Toronto's Bourbon Street Jazz Club several months before the live dates released on Horizon and Artists House, it finds Desmond growing comfortable with his new Toronto friends but not quite settled into their laid-back ways quite yet. ... Desmond seems to produce his best work in the material that he seems most familiar with... The boxy, confined live sound doesn't suit the late saxophonist but every precious unreleased note from Desmond is definitely worth sampling at whatever sonic level".[2]
