The release of this album met with mixed reviews. Chip O'Brien of PopMatters, in a review that also examined the driving force behind Best Of compilations, considered this album to be an attempt by MCA to "make a couple of bucks off the portion of his catalog they still had legal access to." [2] Similarly William Ruhlmann of AllMusic said that this album "predictably treats Earle's career as if it lasted only from 1985-1988 and consisted only of his earlier MCA Records recordings."[3]

gollark: Idea: replace the boring tree structure of hierarchical companies with arbitrary randomly generated graphs.
gollark: No, to predict the consequences of any company action ever.
gollark: You can get an idea of what things are likely or unlikely. The monetary incentive is somewhat important.
gollark: This is one of those annoying things where we're limited to wild speculation so probably don't do anything weird businesswise.
gollark: Democratic ones theoretically allow more input from everyone, which should lead to decisions which consider their interests more and take into account information people know, but also run into whatever issues existing democracies have plus probably exciting new ones due to presumably having a direct democracy voting on a lot of things.
