Allmusic reviewer Thom Jurek states "Anything Goes is a studied and even delightful exercise in the commercial aspect of funky jazz fusion. More interested in extrapolated grooves and pretentious motherchopper riffs... Carter cut a record that was as easy to dance to as it was to admire for the quality of its playing... In all, this is a pumping little record, indicative of a forgotten era".[2]
