"IN THE COURSE OF A LONG AND ILLUSTRIOUS CAREER, HAWKINS HAS SUBJECTED HIS STYLE TO CONTINUOUS DEVELOPMENT. INTELLECTUALLY AND TECHNICALLY FLEXIBLE, THE STYLE HAS ALWAYS REMAINED THE MAN, DISTINCTIVE AND PERSONAL. THIS ALBUM REVEALS A NEW DEPLOYMENT OF RESOURCES, A NEW VIEWPOINT ARRIVED AT AFTER A PERIOD OF REFLECTION. RECORDED FEBRUARY 22, 1965."
"HAWKINS'S LAST STRONG RECORDING FINDS THE VETERAN, 43 YEARS AFTER HIS RECORDING DEBUT WITH MAMIE SMITH'S JAZZ HOUNDS, IMPROVISING CREATIVELY ON A WIDE VARIETY OF MATERIAL ON THIS ALBUM, RANGING FROM "INTERMEZZO" AND "HERE'S THAT RAINY DAY" TO "RED ROSES FOR A BLUE LADY" AND "INDIAN SUMMER". BEST IS AN ADVENTUROUS VERSION OF "OUT OF NOWHERE" THAT SHOWS THAT THE TENOR SAXOPHONIST WAS STILL COMING UP WITH NEW IDEAS IN 1965."--SCOTT YANOW, ALL MUSIC
