Critical reception
The Chicago Tribune wrote: "Opting to leave his guitar at home, Parker relies solely on synthesizers and drum machines to grind out one mildly arresting dance track ('Ain't Gone Go for That') and several interminable ballads." The Calgary Herald noted that "there's nothing here you haven't heard before, usually in a more interesting form."
