Bruce Eder of AllMusic said, "Del Shannon's fifth LP, and his third for the Amy Records label, is an amazingly good effort that holds up very well. The music shows the influence of the British bands of the period without compromising Shannon's own sound -- his originals, mostly hook-laden, achingly beautiful, and bracing."[1]

Billboard called the album "all commercially powerful" and proves that "a good sized pop hit for Shannon - will guarantee interest in the LP".[3]

Record Mirror called it "a worthwhile LP".[2]
