The Calgary Herald missed "the juvenile appeal that Wolf lucked into just before he and his J. Geils Band buddies went their separate ways." [5] The Toronto Star wrote that "it's a charming record, a lively and knowledgeable tome that finds its ground somewhere between the Detroit and Philadelphia schools of soul, while standing firm on a harder rock footing." [9]
The Ottawa Citizen labeled some of the songs "classic primal funk with a conscience." [7] The Globe and Mail dismissed the album as "just one more attempt to capitalize on the appealing, but somewhat limited, rockaboogie sound Geils and company milked throughout the seventies." [10]
All songs written by Peter Wolf, Taylor Rhodes and Robert White Johnson, unless noted otherwise.
