Reception

Scott Yanow of AllMusic stated "On this very interesting set, Andy Laverne performs solo versions of tunes by some of his favorite pianists ... Although quite respectful of the themes and the other pianists' styles, LaVerne's own musical personality comes through, and his interpretations are full of fresh ideas. Recommended".
