Reception
The AllMusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 4 stars, stating: "There isn't anything approaching a middling moment here – this is all killer, no filler. Jazz critics may have had their troubles with this set, but no one cared; Humphrey and the Mizells were creating a new kind of largely instrumental funk that was inclusive of everything they could weave in from world music to soul-jazz to club music to pop – and the public responded".
In popular culture
Hip-hop artists Curren$y and Wiz Khalifa sampled the music from Fancy Dancer for their 2013 EP entitled Live in Concert.
