Allmusic's Jason Ankeny said: "'Afrodesia expands upon the soul-jazz sensibility of organist Lonnie Smith's classic Blue Note efforts, abandoning their hairpin-tight, diamond-sharp grooves in favor of more meditative, free-flowing epics that draw on elements of Latin jazz, pop, and even disco". [5]
All compositions by Lonnie Smith
note: "Flavors" is actually John Coltrane's "Impressions"
