Critical reception edit

Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic wrote that "What keeps Different 'Round Here humming is how Green manages to avoid the temptation of succumbing to straight-ahead revivalism. He takes old-fashioned attitude and simple, lean arrangements and plays them with a fresh directness. His straight-ahead nature may indeed lead him toward cornball territory, but the album on the whole is distinguished by how Green wears his heart on his sleeve."[2]

Commercial performance edit

The album has sold 11,200 copies in the United States as of March 2020.[3] It has since been certified Gold by the RIAA.
