Rating it 3.5 out of 5 stars, Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic found the album to contain more stylistic variety than its predecessors. He also said of Brice that "he wears his impending middle age quite well, proving that even if he's changing his fashions, what looks best on him is something with a little heart."Personnel
