Critical receptionBillboard's reviewer praised Jim Ed Norman's production by saying that it "suited exactly to her warm vocal ambiance; imaginative musical flourishes show up all through this fine package". He also noted that on this LP Murray is "back to doing what she does best: wrapping her voice around a pleasant, well-chosen variety of tunes with ballads predominant throughout."[1] Track listing
