Reception
editThe Allmusic review by Ron Wynn states "Nat Adderley has seldom played with more fire, verve, and distinction as he does on That's Right!".[2] The Penguin Guide to Jazz awarded the album 3½ stars stating "That's Right is a bit of an oddity, with Nat's cornet placed in front of what was billed, quite accurately, as the Big Sax Section".[3]
