Mike Freedberg of the Bay State Banner wrote that "the music he relies on is updated, synthesized, stringed mood ring music that's so today it stings; but King finds a way to act cool, undoing thirty years of gospel blues."[9] Raphael Callaghan of the Liverpool Echo found that, "backed by the jazz-funk of the Crusaders, [King] became an alchemist and turned the beautifully-crafted songs of Will Jennings into blues nuggets with the most heartfelt singing."[10] Bill Dahl of AllMusic noted, "Another collaboration that worked a lot better than one might have expected. King and the Crusaders blended in a marginally funky, contemporary style for the buoyant 'Never Make Your Move Too Soon' and an uplifting 'When It All Comes Down'."[5] Track listingAll tracks by Will Jennings and Joe Sample, except where noted.
