Gold Vol. 1 was certified double gold in France, where it reached number 30 on the chart. It also appeared on the charts in Belgium's Wallonia, Japan, Australia, and the United Kingdom.
After the success of D'eux, which became the best-selling French-language album of all time, various music labels around the world issued compilations with Dion's early and rare recordings from the 1980s. They were released with different covers, under numerous titles, and by several labels, including Gold Vol. 1, For You, Les premières années, Ne partez pas sans moi, La romance, Les premières chansons vol. 1, The Best of Early Years, and Classique - A Love Collection. Gold Vol. 1 was released on 2 October 1995 in France, and other titles followed in Europe, Asia, Australia, and South America.
Rob Theakston of AllMusic gave the album three out of five stars and wrote that the recordings offer an early view of the style Dion would later develop. James Christopher Monger, also of AllMusic, awarded it two and a half stars and noted that the album includes 14 tracks in Dion's native French from her pre-Titanic years, all of which were very popular in Canada and France.
