The Boston Globe called Un Poco Loco "an LP that takes on a spareness usually associated with the ECM school of production—not surprisingly, since ECM artist, guitarist John Abercrombie is prominent on several tracks."[5]
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated that "vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson had evolved from a member of the avant-garde into a top exponent of the modern mainstream... This excellent album features Hutcherson with a top notch all-star group".[2]
