Critical reception
Шаблон:Album ratings The Indianapolis Star wrote: "Apart from a rousing indulgence in country fiddle-music licks on 'Hoedown!', McFerrin's own compositions here lean toward the artfully overdubbed New Age."[10] The St. Petersburg Times praised "the album's best track, McFerrin's beautifully melodic 'Stars'."[11] The Washington Post admired "the winning combination of Ma's unerring, often deeply expressive touch and McFerrin's wit, whimsy, resourcefulness and sheer musicality."[12]
