In his Allmusic review, music critic Bruce Eder called the album "Poco's most unusual record... featuring the group generating a leaner, more stripped-down, somewhat bluesier sound. The harmonies are less radiant and the guitars more subdued, and the spirits also a little more low-key than usual. But the sound they get is still appealing, the singing more reflective."[1]
