AllMusic Review: "Pepper's matchup with Miles Davis's trio in the 1957 classic Art Pepper Meets the Rhythm Section, Pepper utilizes Davis's sidemen on this 1960 near-classic. This time around, rather than emphasizing standards, Pepper performs just three and includes three originals of his own. The music is all very straight ahead and bop-oriented, but as usual, Pepper brings something very personal and unique to his playing; he sounds like no one else." (Scott Yanow)
