Reception
In JazzTimes Nancy Ann Lee noted "An instantly recognizable stylist, Etta Jones sings a heartfelt 10-tune Sammy Cahn tribute, lending drawling, note-bending phrasing to chestnuts such as "It's Magic," “I Should Care," “I'll Walk Alone", "All the Way" and more" and called it "Jones’ classiest, recent-best album".[2]
