Critical reception

Redneck Fiddlin' Man received three stars out of five from Robert L. Doerschuk of Allmusic. He concludes that "No surprises here -- but the Charlie Daniels Band is never about surprise. As with most artists who define themselves according to established musical traditions, their goal is to conform to audience expectations. Daniels isn't the most nuanced singer out there, nor the smoothest fiddler -- but within the confines of the style, which means the span from squint-eyed menace to keg-popping jocularity, no one matches his vocal expressiveness."
