The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow said "From the same sessions that resulted in Anniversary, Stan Getz celebrated his 60th birthday as he had his 50th, with a gig at the Cafe Montmartre in Copenhagen. ...Getz (who only had four years left) plays in peak form, really stretching out... His solo on "I Remember You" is particularly strong".[2]
