Critical reception Edit

Heather Phares of AllMusic says, "Mac McAnally's Word of Mouth features the singer/songwriter/producer/arranger's multiple talents in effect."[1] Geoffrey Himes of The Washington Post writes, "Mac McAnally makes such a good living in Nashville writing songs and playing sessions for the likes of Jimmy Buffett, Sawyer Brown, Steve Wariner and Randy Travis that he doesn't have to rely on his own albums to support himself. So when he gets around to releasing the occasional album (this is his first in five years), he needn't worry about trying to please country radio. Instead he indulges his yen for left-field genre exercises and more personal songs, as on his latest release, Word of Mouth."[3] Jon Weisberge of Country Standard Time states that "it's easy to see why McAnally has enjoyed only intermittent success as a solo artist: he doesn't fit easily into any category. If you like well-crafted, polished songs in a variety of styles, though, this fits the bill."[4]
