Reception
Music critic Richie Unterberger, writing for AllMusic, wrote "His droll delivery and toying with clichés makes it hard to tell whether he's the straight man or a joker, and it's that ambiguity that makes these oddball tunes so intriguing — such pleasant, straight country-pop on the one hand, but such deviously subtle irony on the other."[1]
