The Washington Post wrote that "'Find Another Fool' and 'You'll Come Around' are languid, heartfelt country-and-blues laments." The Chicago Sun-Times concluded that, "for the first time in her vinyl career, Ball's voice is as powerful as her piano playing." The Palm Beach Post determined that the album's "filled with gospel-flavored ballads, soulful laments and bluesy, boogie woogie party songs driven by her dynamic piano playing."
All tracks are written by Marcia Ball, except as noted.
