In a Record World review, the writers note "Hometown and family virtues extolled in deceptively simple music" noting "The instrumentation and the chanting is without polish but with plenty of warm feelings", ending that there is "Something pleasant and homey about this album, like a needlepoint sampler."[4] Billboard magazine stated Greenbaum is "still turning out that good-time rock" on the record.[5] According to Greenbaum, the track "Canned Ham" was controversial, although no reason was given by him for its controversy.[6]
