Reception and singles
Ed Hogan of AllMusic stated that "Jean Carn's self-titled debut for Gamble & Huff's Philadelphia International Records could be subtitled "Philly soul at its best."[1]
Two singles were released from the album. The lead-off track, "Free Love", peaked at No. 23 on the Billboard Soul Singles chart in April 1977.[2] The second single, "If You Wanna Go Back", failed to chart.[3] The two songs, along with the track "You Got a Problem", had received enough combined play in dance clubs to peak together at No. 18 on the National Disco Action chart in February 1977.[4][5]
