Thom Owens of Allmusic gave the album two stars out of five, saying, "It's a pleasant album, yet it doesn't offer any new revelations or great performances."^[2] New Country magazine reviewer Rob Patterson gave the album two-and-a-half stars out of five, saying that the re-recordings were largely identical to the original versions, and that Seals occasionally sounded like a soft rock artist.^[1]
