"Backed by Jimmy Bond and Albert 'Tootie' Heath, this album showcases her (Nina Simone) ballad voice as one of mystery and sensuality and her up-tempo jazz style with authority and an enigmatic down- home feel that is nonetheless elegant. The album also introduced a fine jazz pianist. Simone was a solid improviser who never strayed far from the blues." - Thom Jurek, AllMusic
