The recordings were dormant for 50 years, until he published "One by One" in 2004, leading to Dan Dzula tracking him down to restore, produce, and release a collection of Converse's music.

[4] Editors of AllMusic Guide scored this release 4.5 out of five stars, with reviewer Fred Thomas noting that "Converse's lyrics are always playful, spacy, and even somewhat psychedelic" and that she "made songs far too vulnerable and odd to be accepted in her time".

[2] Writing for the Los Angeles Times, Randall Roberts shortlisted this album among excellent reissues coming out in the following months and calling the work "strikingly intimate, poetic self-penned folk songs".

[3] A 2014 overview of Converse's life by BBC News had author Ian Youngs characterizing the musician as a writer of "haunting, beautiful songs with a poetic honesty and melodic sophistication" who "was not the most gifted vocalist or guitar player" but who sang "with a depth, intimacy and eloquence that were rare for that era".

[1] John Paul of PopMatters rated the 2015 re-release an eight out of 10, calling her biography secondary to the musical legacy she left, noting that "a closer listen to the melodic constructs of each and, most importantly, the lyrical content, the siren-like allure of Connie Converse becomes impossible to resist".
