In his review on Allmusic, Scott Yanow states "Tenor saxophonist Willis Jackson got into a routine on his Muse albums, but never lost his enthusiasm and creativity within the genre ... An excellent effort full of enjoyable and fairly accessible music".{{allMusic|class=album|id=mw0000876701|first=Scott|last=Yanow|label=Willis Jackson – Nothing Butt: Review|accessdate=April 11, 2017}}
