The Province wrote that "Williams's classic unadorned signature ... is lukewarm on True Love." The Chicago Tribune deemed the album an "unusually rhythmic collection," writing that Williams's voice "remains as warm as a favorite memory." The Buffalo News opined that "nobody sings about the average lives of average Americans with more poignancy than Don Williams." The Orange County Register noted that "Lord, Have Mercy on a Country Boy" "may be the least preachy and most elegant song yet about the devastation to our environment."
