Reception

The Allmusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine awarded the album 3 stars and stated "In some ways, it's hard to view George Braith's playing a soprano and alto saxophone simultaneously as anything other than a gimmick, especially since it's nearly presented that way on his debut album... Nevertheless, Two Souls in One remains an enjoyable, occasionally rewarding, collection of soul-jazz and cautiously adventurous hard bop".Erlewine, S. T.
