In his review for AllMusic, arwulf arwulf states "Bassist William Parker's exceptionally fine and friendly-to-listen-to album Uncle Joe's Spirit House has been warmly received as a comparatively "inside" listening experience, because unlike virtually anything else in his discography prior to its release in 2010, this is a study in organ combo jazz... with every recording he sends out into the world, William Parker's personal blend of spirituality, surreality, and musicality references every aspect of his—and our—existence" The All About Jazz review noted "Uncle Joe's Spirit House is a deeply personal offering from a musician whose role as a scene leader and social activist is as significant as his instrumental prowess".[3]
