In a review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow noted that the album "progress[es] logically from the boppish 'Blue Honda a la Truck,' the grooving 'Fanfare and Fiesta,' and 'Bud-Like' to increasingly freer music before the spacy closer." He wrote: "Virtually every Hugh Ragin recording is well-worth exploring, and this one is no exception."[1]
The authors of The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings called the album an "enjoyable set" and a "nice record," but noted that "Ragin's devotion to the music of Sun Ra... is more implicit than explicit."[5]
