Reception
AllMusic reviewer Scott Yanow stated: "It may have been relatively late in Jimmy Rushing's career ... but he was still in prime singing voice. Joined by such friends as trombonist Dickie Wells, trumpeter Clark Terry, and tenor saxophonist Buddy Tate, Rushing shows that he was still relevant ... both Rushing and the musicians play off each other well, resulting in a swinging set".
