[13] The Indianapolis Star determined that "the Hoagy Carmichael title track is irresistibly crooned by Redbone in his best boo-boo-boo-boo fashion as almost a lullaby.

"[14] The Chicago Tribune called the album "another relaxed float down an old-time stream, the banks lined with happy musicians strumming old-timey blues, Tin Pan Alley and ragtime tunes.

"[16] Stereo Review wrote that "Redbone's shtick of old-timey jazz, blues, and vaudeville wore thin a long time ago ... the sidemen, especially cornetist Scott Black and bass-sax player Vince Giordano, do their best to dress things up for public consumption.

"[17] The St. Louis Post-Dispatch noted that "the music of a bygone era begins to sound fresh as the songs validate themselves endlessly with timeless melodies, thoughtful lyrics and Redbone's terrific guitar playing.

"[20] AllMusic wrote: "Sporting an unmistakable and remarkably limber baritone, Redbone continues his fusion of Americana with some distinct and flavorful overtones that would not sound out of place in the Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli-led Quintet of the Hot Club of France.
