Robert Christgau wrote that "nothing drags, nothing protrudes, and the Zorba solo and reggae number could come off a Sam the Sham album." [10] The Oklahoman deemed the album "a mixture of danceable Tex-Mex melodies, Jamaican rhythms and Carrasco's energetic vocals centered around an old fashioned Farfisa organ." [13] Texas Monthly thought that Carrasco's "music has an edge on most New Wave: his sound is positive, humorous, and upward-moving." [8] The Lincoln Journal Star noted that the album quells "the peppy Tex-Mex slightly in favor of a heavier beat." [11]
