      Critical reception



      The Bay State Banner noted that "most of Womack's ... session choices are California jazz men whose preoccupations are far from the vernacular vamping you hear in progressive disco boogie or the baroque elegance of such Chicago soul dreams as Tyrone Davis and Peabo Bryson songs."
