AllMusic     [4]
Chicago Tribune    [5]

The Chicago Tribune noted that "classic New Orleans rhythm and blues is alive and thriving."[5] The New York Times wrote that Eaglin "plays like two guitarists at once, picking out lead lines in between strummed rhythm-guitar chords."[6]

In his review for AllMusic, Bill Dahl states that "Eaglin's churchy, commanding vocals and blistering guitar work are nothing short of mind-boggling throughout the entire disc."[4]
