Reception
In writing for Spin, Ira Robbins called Elaine MacKenzie "an album of great accomplishment" that "pair[s] the most worthwhile Kinks influence since Big Star with enough hoarse soulful R&B soul for a Small Faces LP on Paisley Park." He gave further praise to Jeff Lescher's vocal performance, which he described as "a rough but melodic roar that seems to be straining for release."[2]
