AllMusic reviewer Steve Loewy states: "While the volume and intensity are toned down a notch from that of some other McPhee excursions, the quality of music is never less than superb".[2] On All About Jazz, Derek Taylor wrote: "Those folks who have already imbibed the intoxicating sounds of In the Spirit will definitely want to check out this second round from the well. Listeners who haven't yet heard either are strongly advised to acquire both and set aside a secluded pair of hours free from worldly distractions to drink this glorious music in".[4]JazzTimes noted the album's "generally uplifting though often contemplative moods".[5]
