AllMusic | [1] |
Entertainment Weekly | B[5] |
Kerrang! | [6] |
Orlando Sentinel | [7] |
Trouser Press called the debut "a surprisingly strong album that dramatically shows the rootsy sensibility [Stradlin] brought to G n’ R. It sounds like a good Keith Richards solo album (and is actually much better than the album Richards released around the same time)."[8] The album was named 16th best album of the year by Kerrang![9]
