Reception

The AllMusic review by Pemberton Roach stated "A highly underrated and oft-ignored album, Reflections should be re-evaluated and viewed not as an acceptance of crass commercialism, but as a daring and brilliant artist's attempt to find pure music by blurring the boundaries between jazz and pop".{{AllMusic|first=Pemberton |last=Roach |class=album |id= mw0000047075 |title=Reflections – Review |access-date=June 22, 2016}}
