In a review for AllMusic, Ken Dryden wrote: "Lundy only occasionally steps into the studio to lead his own record date, but the bassist never disappoints... The obvious interaction among the participants in their interpretations of this mostly new material makes this CD one that stands up very well to repeated hearings."^[1]

The authors of The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings called the album "the best" of Lundy's recordings to date, and stated that "Oveida" "deserves minor modern classic status."^[7]

Harvey Siders of JazzTimes noted Lundy's "beauty of tone" and "instinct for swing," stating that his "purpose here is to blend five other like-minded veterans and newcomers." He praised "Blues for J.A.," in which "Lundy reveals the sheer joy and power of straightahead walking that conjures up the abandon of Leroy Vinnegar."^[8]

Writing for All About Jazz, Jim Santella remarked: "As if working a nightclub session in the wee hours of the morning, Curtis Lundy's quintet purrs with a smooth sound and a subtle, but forceful, rhythmic drive... Mainstream jazz is in good hands."^[6]
