Critical reception

Reviewing the album in , Robert Christgau wrote:
After twenty years of raking it in from the shadows, he's finally figured out a way of applying his basically comic bass/baritone to rock and roll. Studio-psychedelic New Orleans, echoes of the Band and Dr. John, some brilliant minor r&b mixed in with the dumb stuff. My God—at the moment he's more interesting than Tina.

Reissues

Bad Dreams was reissued in 2012 by BGO Records on the compilation CD Blues Roots/Bad Dreams.
