The Los Angeles Daily News wrote that "the small-band jazz arrangements may be of a certain period, but Redbone's world-weary emotionalism will strike a chord with anyone who fancies themselves a prisoner of love."^[14] The Edmonton Journal said that "liberal doses of clarinet, belching tubas, ragtime piano fills, and bright yet brittle guitar licks provide the foundation for tunes."^[13] The Birmingham Post determined that Redbone "knows his musical history and brings just the right amount of dedication to his performance, coupled with that tip of tongue in cheek."^[12]

The Washington Post noted that, "to hear Bob Gordon's clarinet skipping around Redbone's sleepy croon on Morton's 'If You Knew' is to understand how happily jazz and pop cohabited for a brief period."^[16] The Tampa Tribune concluded that Redbone "coddles each song as if he were inspecting antique miniatures and marveling at their intricacies."^[8]

AllMusic wrote that "the crooner takes listeners back to a time when Herbert Hoover or Franklin Delano Roosevelt was in the White House, and he maintains a relaxed, congenial, laid-back ambience on vintage tunes."^[11]
