Reception
{{Album ratings
| rev1 = Allmusic
}}
Allmusic reviewer Ken Dryden stated: " With the exception of Together Again with Teddy Edwards, the 1950s had largely been a waste for Howard McGhee, as drug addiction had taken its toll on his playing. But he is in good form for this 1961 studio session for Bethlehem".{{AllMusic|first=Ken |last=Dryden |class=album |id=mw0000242421 |title=Dusty Blue – Review |accessdate=May 12, 2015}}
