In a retrospective review, Jim Green of Trouser Press described Strange Man, Changed Man as "an energetic mixture of The Byrds, Springsteen and, not surprisingly, The Motors", writing that in addition to "three fine singles... the rest of the material has also worn remarkably well."[4]

gollark: Wait, I can run this, if barely. Muahahaha.
