The release of this album met with mixed reviews. Chip O'Brien of Popmatters, in a review that also examined the driving force behind Best Of compilations, considered this album to be an attempt by MCA to "make a couple of bucks off the portion of his catalog they still had legal access to." [2] Similarly William Ruhlmann of AllMusic said that this album "predictably treats Earle's career as if it lasted only from 1985-1988 and consisted only of his earlier MCA Records recordings."[3]
