In his review for AllMusic, Alex Henderson states "Many of Chicago's bop musicians have lamented Sullivan's decision to move to Florida and wish he had never left Chi-Town; listening to the rewarding Blue Stroll, it isn't hard to understand why they feel that way."[2]
The Penguin Guide to Jazz notes about Griffin "who barges and blusters his way through his solos, tossing out tags and quotes as if to remind the others what else was going on in the world."[3]
