Reception
Despite failing to chart, the album was met with positive reviews. Billboard states that the album has a considerable middle of the road appeal.[1] Gary Graff describes its title track as a fine example of the group's distinctive sound.[2] Bad Cat states, despite Yost's pleasant voice with a middle of the road approach, his performances were deeper and rougher compared to his previous albums.[3]
