A review published by Billboard in the July 28, 1979, issue said, "Well known vocalist from the Staple Singers steps out on her second solo effort with a mixture of uptempo, disco flavored songs and midtempo, soulful ballads.

Staples voice is fluid, strong and gutsy, giving this LP much the same appeal which highlighted Cheryl Lynn's exhilarating debut last year.

"[4] Cashbox published a review of the album in the issue dated July 28, 1979, which said, "Mavis gave the Staple Singers that distinct, gritty vocal sound, and on Oh What a Feeling she proves just how versatile she is.

A torchy ballad, "I Miss You", the disco hit, "Tonight I Feel Like Dancing", and the R&B flavored title cut are the LP's highpoints.

"[5] The Bay State Banner opined that "it's a big comedown to realize veteran producers and idolized individuals like Jerry Wexler have so little idea of what makes successful singers tick, and have so little regard for them that they put them in embarrassing situations as this one.
