AllMusic editor Stephen Thomas Erlewine called Reachin' Back "a collection of 11 covers of classic R&B and soul songs, including numbers performed by Al Green and The Spinners. Since their definitive, original performances have become part of the public's collective consciousness, it's unfair to hold Belle's interpretations in comparison, since hers inevitably pale. Taken on their own terms, her versions are well-sung and well-produced, yet slightly uninspired. Fans might find it necessary, but Reachin' Back doesn't rank among her most distinguished efforts."[3]
