AllMusic     [1]

In a retrospective review for AllMusic, critic Charles Donovan described the album as a "mixed bag", concluding that "Her vocal performance is as committed and passionate as ever, and the piano playing that isn't buried in a soup of synthesizers certainly shines, but the songs fall short of expectations."[1]
