Reception
{{Album ratings
| rev1 = AllMusic
}}
AllMusic reviewer Scott Yanow stated: "Although much of the material on altoist Bunky Green's Vanguard album is rather unlikely, Green's solos uplift and give a new slant to the pop tunes. Green is assisted by an oversized rhythm section that includes guitarist Hiram Bullock".{{AllMusic|first=Scott |last=Yanow|class=album |id= mw0001009778 |title=Bunky Green: Visions – Review |accessdate=August 5, 2019}}
