Reception
AllMusic stated that "Hicks' tribute to the late Erroll Garner emphasizes the song writing brilliance that is overshadowed by the huge success of his classic 'Misty' ... John Hicks has done a service to jazz fans by exploring the music of Erroll Garner in greater detail". JazzTimes wrote: "Hicks is a very different pianist than Garner: his left hand carries subtle dynamic shadings, where Garner's was all about time. He shares with Garner a reverence for melody and a sense of musical destination that gives form to his improvisations".
