Wrapped Tight

In his review at Allmusic.com, Scott Yanow gave the album 4 stars, stating, "Hawkins's last strong recording finds the veteran, 43 years after his recording debut with Mamie Smith's Jazz Hounds, improvising creatively on a wide variety of material... [showing] that the tenor-saxophonist was still coming up with new ideas in 1965".[2]
