Reception
Commenting on the original release in The New York Times, jazz critic John S. Wilson wrote: "It is a collection that brings Duke Ellington and his orchestra vividly alive for anyone who ever saw them and it may offer an explanation of his personal and musical charisma for those who missed him." The Allmusic review by Heather Phares stated: "Fresh arrangements of 'Take the 'A' Train', 'Mood Indigo', 'I Got It Bad (And That Ain't Good)' and 'Sophisticated Lady' make this set as invigorating now as it was."
