site awarded the album 3 stars stating "''Until It's Time for You to Go'' is an album of tasteful commercialism... This is not an album of wimpy elevator Muzak; whether he is on alto or tenor, Bryant's playing is gutsy and substantial. And even if some of the material is over-arranged, Bryant still gets in his share of meaty solos. Not everything that Bryant recorded in the '70s was great, but ''Until It's Time for You to Go'' is among the late saxman's more memorable albums of that era".[Henderson, A]
