In a review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow wrote: "John Coltrane's Savoy recordings with fluegelhornist Wilbur Harden are enjoyable but not particularly innovative... Despite all of the emphasis on Africa in the song titles, the music is essentially American bebop featuring Coltrane, Harden and trombonist Curtis Fuller; Harden and Fuller contributed two originals apiece. This album is a companion of Dial Africa."[4]
