Critical reception
Professional ratings Review scores Source Rating AllMusicLinda Hamilton of Deseret News praised Oskar's performances, noting that it had "retained much of War's sound". SleepyJack praised the album's sound design, stating that it was "straight-forward and stripped-down" and "put the harmonica in a role typically reserved for sax sounded fresh. A reviewer for In Sheep's Clothing praised the album, which they said was a "roller disco classic", also nothing that it was "a pleasant harmonica funk album with one incredible haunted tune." Alex Henderson of AllMusic praised Oskar's harmonica playing, stating it was "expressive whether he is getting mildly funky on "Steppin'" or being mellow and laid-back on "More Than Words Can Say"."
