In his AllMusic review, critic Cub Koda wrote of the CD reissue, "this is prime Buck Owens and His Buckaroos in the holiday mode. Featured here are 'Santa Looked a Lot Like Daddy,' 'Santa's Gonna Come in a Stagecoach,' and enough Yule-time weepers to make you realize that the holidays have a mighty dark side, too."[2]
