Reception

Scott Yanow of AllMusic noted "Dee Dee Bridgewater's move to France awhile back has resulted in her having a relatively low profile in jazz. This excellent live set should help restore her reputation... Bridgewater (who is backed by a French rhythm section) is in top form, singing with swing and sensitivity."[2] The Buffalo News review by Jeff Simon stated, "...Bridgewater has enough joy, energy and authenticity to capture the stoniest heart and heaviest foot."
