Allmusic	[2]

Allmusic awarded the album 2 stars stating "Soul in the Night offered up Chicago's famous muscular jazz sound by two of its masters... Stitt and Green wrap their saxes around a tune, exploring gritty and fluid possibilities. Interestingly, the album's stereo version gives each player his own spotlight, as Stitt has one speaker and Green has the other to himself".^[2]
