Critical reception
Billboard stated that "Featuring his hit single, 'There Must Be a Way', Roselli's open, full tones score throughout this highly commercial LP of standards and today's popular tunes. 'There Goes My Everything' and 'Get Out of My Heart' have the right country feeling."[4] Record World noted that the "Big ballads of the last three decades are here-all belted out solidly by Jimmy."[8]
