The Allmusic review called it a "Sharp trio set" and stated: "The results are uniformly solid, sometimes more emphatic than others. Burrell is still playing in a relaxed, easy groove, but occasionally increases the energy level".{{AllMusic|first=Ron |last=Wynn |class=album |id=mw0000079933 |title=Listen to the Dawn – Review |accessdate=April 13, 2017}}
