Adrian Zupp of AllMusic gave the album 4.5 out of 5, saying; “His songwriting range [from] tender ballads through to poppier fare and even campy fun numbers has rarely been rivaled …[and this album] captures the cream of Allen's career on one highly engaging disc.” Zupp concluded with “this album spans the moods and melodies that made Peter Allen such a special artist.”
