AllMusic reviewer Scott Yanow stated: "Carey Bell is an effective and surprisingly versatile singer but it is his powerful harmonica that really stands out. ... His longtime guitarist Steve Jacobs offers some concise and stinging comments but the leader is virtually the whole show on his CD, which finds him leading a tight six-piece group. Nothing too unusual occurs but the music definitely has plenty of spirit".[2] The Penguin Guide to Blues Recordings wrote: "Bell continues to sing and play well enough ... but the spark is intermittent ... The presence of lead guitarist Jacobs is a definite drawback, his crashingly inappropriate solos destroying the others' good work".[3]
