Writing for Allmusic, critic Ronnie D. Lankford, Jr. wrote of the album "this isn't the run-of-the-mill holiday product, and Prine can still write a good song when he sets his mind to it. Old fans will be glad to see that even cynics can age gracefully."[1] Music critic Robert Christgau gave the album a 1-star Honorable Mention rating.[2]
