The Province wrote that "Williams's classic unadorned signature ... is lukewarm on True Love."[6] The Chicago Tribune deemed the album an "unusually rhythmic collection," writing that Williams's voice "remains as warm as a favorite memory."[5] The Buffalo News opined that "nobody sings about the average lives of average Americans with more poignancy than Don Williams."[7] The Orange County Register noted that "Lord, Have Mercy on a Country Boy" "may be the least preachy and most elegant song yet about the devastation to our environment."[8]
