Critical reception [edit]

Professional ratings
Review scores
Source Rating
AllMusic 4/5 stars [1]

AllMusic editor Jason Elias found that songs "like "Other Side of the Coin," "When Are You Comin' Back," and "Two Wrongs Don't Make a Right" can't help but come off as filler given the excellent songs surrounding them. The best songs here more than make up for any so-so tracks and this is more than recommended."[1]
