The Allmusic review by Ronnie D. Lankford Jr. awarded the album 4 stars and states "The material cuts a wide swath across non-jazz genres, from the bluesy "Next Time I See You" to the popular "Since I Fell for You" to the fun nonsense of "Green Door." Although the instrumental work takes a back seat to the vocals, both Cannonball and Nat Adderley find room to offer pithy solos that spice up the proceedings. The accompaniment is an active one, too, with intricate piano and horns highlighting and underlining Andrews as needed".[3]The Penguin Guide to Jazz awarded the album 3 stars stating "Live Session actually comes from gigs two years apart, and were meant to launch the singing voice of Andrews as much as Adderley. He sounds fine but the band takes a back seat to the singer and for Cannonball fans this one's secondary".[4]
