The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow noted: "Other than the opening 'Doo-Wah-Doo' and the closing 'Cherry Red', both of which include guitarist Thomas Muller, bassist Ole Skipper Mosgard and drummer Thorkild Moller, this is a set of unaccompanied piano and vocals by the great veteran Jay McShann. The music is typical for McShann, with veteran blues (such as 'After Hours' and 'How Long Blues'), the standard 'Ace in the Hole', and some swinging boogie-based originals".[2]
