In The Digital Mood
"With the quality of the playing, one will be able to make out minuscule elements of the original arrangements that were long obscured... This is still one cool, swinging release and, with its virtuoso musicianship, offers many of the same appealing qualities as the original Miller recordings." -All Music Guide
