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."

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".
