Critical reception
AllMusic wrote that "the songs are just kind of generic: good-enough uptempo dance cuts and midtempo groovers, songs that give enough space for Etta but never really escape the confines of average '70s disco-oriented R&B."[2]The Sunday Times wrote that the album "mixes tough funk and bluesy soul ballads."[7]
