The Wall Street Journal said Bob Dylan in the 80s: Volume One was an assembly of likable Dylan songs from his 1980s albums.[8] On the other hand, The New Yorker felt the collection was missing a clear order and was more than a decade's worth of songs, as it included selections from 1990's Under the Red Sky.[9]
