The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow states: "the final CD of the extensive documentation of the Shelly Manne Quintet's stint at the Black Hawk club consists entirely of previously unreleased material. The performances by trumpeter Joe Gordon, tenor saxophonist Richie Kamuca, pianist Russ Freeman {{sic}},This is a mistake. The pianist was Victor Feldman. bassist Monty Budwig, and the drummer/leader are the same high level as on the more familiar material".{{AllMusic|first=Scott |last=Yanow |class=album |id=mw0000272359 |title=At the Blackhawk, Vol. 5 – Review |access-date=May 18, 2015}}
