Down Beat original review:
“This is the kind of session about which critical comment is a waste of space. The two men blend just the way you would expect a rabbit to blend with a carrot-top. Casual, unostentatious music that belongs irrevocably to the past, present and future of jazz. (Leonard Feather)
All Music Guide
“Gerry Mulligan's 1959 studio date with Johnny Hodges is one of the most satisfying sessions of his various meetings with different saxophonists for Verve.” (Ken Dryden)
