The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings[3]

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow states: "Singer Ruth Price on this early set falls somewhere between swinging jazz, middle-of-the-road pop, and cabaret. She does not improvise much, but her strong and very appealing voice uplifts the diverse material that she interprets".[2]
