## Reception

[edit]

Professional ratingsReview scores

Source| Rating
Allmusic| [3]

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "This duet session is as much pianist Albert Dailey's date as Stan Getz's. Getz lets Dailey, who died a little over a year later, dominate the music and the lyrical pianist comes up with some fresh ideas during the standards set".[3]
