AllMusic     [3]

In his review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow stated "Tenor saxophonist Teddy Edwards was in trumpeter Howard McGhee's group during 1945-47. Over 30 years later they reunited for what would be McGhee's final recording sessions (although the trumpeter lived until 1987). ... McGhee and Edwards are in excellent form on a set filled with bop standards".[3]
