In his review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow stated: "David "Fathead" Newman's first freewheeling recording in a number of years showed that he was certainly capable of playing creative soul-jazz and bop when inspired ... An excellent effort".{{allMusic|class=album|id=mw0000024420|first= Scott|last=Yanow|label= David "Fathead" Newman: Resurgence!: Review|accessdate=November 27, 2018}}
