Reception

In his review for Allmusic, music critic James Chrispell wrote "This is a much different album for Tim Hardin, but it is much better than most would have thought... While Painted Head isn't that great an album, it shows that Hardin was trying to reel in his excesses and give his career some much-needed discipline."
