Maddy Costa of The Guardian wrote "Darlene Love is one of the 1960s girl-group footsoldiers who has consistently marched at the periphery of the spotlight, except when friends in high places – including David Letterman – thrust her into full view. The E Street Band's Steven Van Zandt is a long-time champion, and the 65-minute album he has constructed around her, featuring new songs by Bruce Springsteen and Elvis Costello, has the gushing quality of a fan tribute."[4] Mark Deming of AllMusic found Introducing "a convincer, proving Darlene Love still holds the title of one of rock and R&B's greatest vocalists."[3]
