"The trio, Veith on piano, Gus Mancuso on double bass and Eddy Pucci on drums are mostly just along for the ride on this day. They do a great job providing a blank canvas for Vaughan to paint her masterpieces. Veith's stride-like stylings on ballads like Misty and Polkadots and Moonbeams fill the spaces and accompany her voice beautifully, and Mancuso and Pucci strap in for the up tempo numbers like I Cried for You, The Trolley Song and I Had a Ball that probably knocked even their socks off. Solos are not on the menu here but it's not even noticeable; Vaughan's artistry is more than enough. This album is a real treat, up there with Live at the Tivoli and Mr Kelly's, and totally worth adding to the shelf".

"Her semi-operatic interpretations are not for everyone (who are advised to check out her more swinging recordings of the 1950s) but it is difficult not to be very impressed with her singing and her voice in general on these well-recorded and frequently exciting performances".
