AllMusic wrote that Rodney Crowell and Cash "made the song selections while Rodney called in Emmylou Harris's band (of which he was an alumnus) and some up and comers and created a sonic palette that accented the brave new world of stripped-down mixes and songs that came from the left field of country or pop."[7] Pitchfork wrote that Right or Wrong "kicked off a decade of untouchable albums."[12] Orange Coast praised the "smooth, satisfying vocal performance."[13]
