In reviewing Fraser & DeBolt's first Columbia release, Mark Allan, of All Music Guide, comments that "One of the many sad secrets of the popular music business is the way this little gem languished in obscurity. It should have been heard by millions, but disappeared at the height of psychedelia. Two years later, The Band found an audience with haunting tales of bygone rustic North American life with their seminal, self-titled second album. Widespread acclaim eluded the earlier outing by this unheralded Canadian trio. The songs, most written independently by Daisy DeBolt or Allan Fraser, are poetic."[1] John Gabree, in a review published in High Fidelity in 1971, described Fraser & DeBolt With Ian Guenther as "one of the best pop albums I have ever heard."[2]
