Reception
Template:Music ratings The New York Times concluded that "Souther's trouble is that his voice simply isn't very interesting, at least in a folk-rock context on recording."[1]
In his retrospective review for AllMusic, critic William Ruhlmann praised "White Rhythm and Blues" as well as the solo version of the Souther–Hillman–Furay Band song "Trouble in Paradise".[2]
