"... notable for some fine blowing by the tenor saxist ... solid jazz wax ..."
- Billboard
"... a full dose of Gordon minus any other horns. Kenny Drew on piano was a perfect accompanist, Philly Joe Jones on drums is as steady as a rock. Dexter’s calling out to us ... it’s time for us to answer and add this reissue to our collection."
- Audiophile Audition
"A great trio supports him here on a programme of lazy soul wails, cryptic hard bop charges, romantic standards and a little smoky rumination, such as the lovely, trembling and structurally audacious Ernie's Tune, played with a combined strength and tenderness that even the most skillful contemporary tenor players seem unable to mimic."
- The Guardian
Recorded over the same four day period in 1961 as Dexter Gordon's Blue Note debut Doin' Allright, this session features a different lineup of musicians with Gordon the only horn player. The band, lavishly praised by critics, features pianist Kenny Drew, bassist Paul Chambers and drummer Philly Joe Jones.
