Music critic Richie Unterberger wrote in his Allmusic review "It's not bad, but there are better versions than these songs; the arrangements are a little too syrupy, the singing is okay but not brilliant, some of the songs are too lightweight, and the overall mood is too damned unrelentingly understated."[3]
