Reception


AllMusic awarded the album 1½ stars with its review by Scott Yanow stating: "Sock! is basically a mess. The ten brief songs are strung together with no thought given to sound or segues, and the material itself is pretty weak". The more modern tracks 1-3 are the best and can be found on the Stranger In Town CD.[1]
