Allmusic's Richard S. Ginell said: "Everybody swings, everybody listens intuitively to each other and feels the down-home churchy grooves, and they recorded it all in one day at Rudy Van Gelder's studio. This has the ingredients for ranking as an instant classic in this idiom". [5] On All About Jazz, Douglas Payne noted "It's nice to hear Jimmy McGriff like this, and I highly recommend The Dream Team to the McGriff mob and those folks into some good contemporary acid jazz". [7] In JazzTimes, David Franklin wrote "For that good ol’ blues-drenched, Hammond B-3-style-jazz, you can't do much better than this. The recording boasts some of the masters of the genre and they live up to expectations. ... Infectious music you'll want to come back to". [8]
