Reception
Writing for Allmusic, critic Evan Cator praised Mulvey's guitar playing, but criticized his songwriting, writing, "the songs are generally ramblingly wordy lyrics slung haphazardly into semi-melodies that get lost in the intricate guitar work. At times one gets the impression that Mulvey was attempting some sort of jazz-folk hybrid, but he seems to have appropriated only the most self-indulgent and careless qualities of jazz. It doesn't help that he didn't yet have much control over his singing voice... The album will only be of interest to the artist's most devoted followers."
