In a review for Jazzwise, Kevin Le Gendre wrote: "In this centenary year of Billie Holiday's birth, the release of a concert performance that brings any kind of attention to Lincoln, the singer who upheld her spirit perhaps more than anyone, is welcome... None of her sidemen are really 'name' players yet they provide simpatico and sensitive support, responding well to her leisurely time for the most part, and swinging without excess bluster."[7]

Anders Griffen of The New York City Jazz Record described the album as "an outstanding set," and stated: "This appearance at Keystone Korner marks the beginning of Lincoln's music reclaiming the vanguard of her livelihood... the whole group... displays tremendous rapport... With great live sound in an intimate setting, a nuanced program and a killing band, this is truly an unearthed gem."[8]

Dusted Magazine's Derek Taylor noted that the album finds Lincoln "regaling a receptive audience and adopting the after-hours chanteuse style of her greatest influence, Billie Holiday," and commented: "The music here works as a decent placeholder of where she was prior, plying her trade on the small stage to commensurate applause with nothing to prove and a legacy already secure."[9]

Writing for Audiophile Audition, John Sunier remarked: "In this somewhat eclectic session, Abbey runs through a set list of original material, standards, and songs that appear to have a close association with her causes. Backed by a sympathetic trio, she sings and talks her way with warmth and intimacy through the numbers... This is a welcomed addition to the Abbey Lincoln discography."[6]

The editors of NPR Music included the album in their list of best historical releases of 2015,[10] as did David Johnson of Indiana Public Media.[11]
