The AllMusic review by Richard S. Ginell stated, "The influence of India upon jazz had not been spent entirely when Dave Liebman and Lookout Farm recorded the first of his Horizon albums, which pursues the East-meets-West direction of his former employer Miles Davis, but without the latter's dramatic thrust ... Fascinating music, if not always convincing."<ref name="Allmusic">{{AllMusic|first=Richard S. |last=Ginell |class=album |id=mw0000869660 |title= David Liebman: ''Sweet Hands'' – Review |accessdate=September 12, 2017}}</ref>
