AllMusic[5]

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated "Pianist Red Garland's final Galaxy set (he only recorded two other records before his death in 1984) is an outing with an all-star quintet ... The pianist, who had spent much of the past 16 years living in his native Texas, shows that he could still swing with the best".[5]
