AllMusic called it "one of Mann's best albums of that decade".[1]
A reviewer for Billboard wrote: "Thanks to Brazilian influence, this set is not as commercially crass as many of Mann's late-'70s crossover attempts."[2]
P.J. Birosik of Yoga Journal described the album as "feel-good music for fans of both new age jazz and world music," and noted "the music's innate sensuality." He stated that Mann's "performances of these deceptively simple compositions are impassioned and precise, allowing his band a chance to breathe and explore the music's dynamics."[3]
