"Christian Brorsen, music director of the Jazzhus, says, "A great affection developed between Kenny and the audience. The public simply wouldn't let him leave the stage. He has a lot of heart and exudes a rare warmth. Along with perfect pitch and a repertoire that seems endless, he is a sensational singer - and a greater entertainer than he realizes - an authentic virtuoso" ... Kenny Washington wisely leavens his repertoire with compositions by Stevie Wonder and on this - amazingly only his second album - Otis Redding. He also instils new life in that old chestnut "Do You Know What It Means To Miss New Orleans?" But he'll be best remembered by his many new Danish fans for the title track, "Moanin'" which starts with wordless wailing and builds through verses written by Jon Hendricks to a stunning climax".

"[Washington] er efter sigende ikke fysisk stor. Det er hans stemme til gengæld. Han står fast på den grund, som de mange års saxofonspil har givet. Han har styr på det vokaltekniske og timingen sidder præcist. Når det så toppes med en autentisk og lækker stemme rundet af soul, så bliver jeg blød. De når kun at præsentere fem numre på pladen, hvor der også er levnet en masse plads til Christoffersen og Bodilsen ... Han har lige været på Montmartre for tredje og næppe sidste gang. Stemningen på CD'en indikerer, at Kenny Washington sammen med denne trio skabte en magisk aften for de fremmødte. Den stemning er heldigvis bevaret på en meget vellydende liveindspilning".
