Review from AllMusic (by Scott Yanow):
The Mastersounds turn the music into jazz, but they keep the melodies in mind during their solos. The results are both respectful and swinging, well worth searching for by fans of the vibes quartet sound and the score of The King and I.

Reseña de AllMusic (por Scott Yanow):
The Mastersounds convierten la música en jazz, pero mantienen las melodías en mente durante sus solos. Los resultados son respetuosos y con swing, vale la pena buscar para los fanáticos del sonido del cuarteto de vibráfono y la partitura de El Rey y Yo.
