Writing for Allmusic, music critic David Freedlander wrote of the album "As sweet as a watermelon on a hot summer afternoon, and as a beautifully simple as dusty country road, Greg Brown's Iowa Waltz shows the man who later was to become one of the greatest folk singers of his generation at his earliest and most casually sublime... If Iowa Waltz doesn't stir your soul, then check your pulse."[1]
