4 STARS ALL MUSIC GUIDE
“Solos done live in performance are nothing new for Ray Bryant, but stylistically, this recording does have the masterful, blues-based pianist digging into some new material of his own, along with the music of Fats Waller”. - Michael G. Nastos, All Music Guide
“Albums largely devoted to pop and jazz standards are common these days, but how often do you encounter one that infuses each performance with the charm and vitality that Bryant brings to this collection? ”. - Mike Joyce, Jazz Time, Magazine
