Reception
The album was met with mixed reviews. Joe Viglione of AllMusic describes the album as a compilation of pop and soul acts, in which the band attempted to sound like the Mamas and the Papas.[1] Bad Cat calls the album inconsistent, but praised the group for bringing an entertaining mix of commercial pop and blue-eyed soul.[4]
