Critical reception

reviewed the album's 1971 American reissue in , preferring it to the band's other records, "before anybody had figured out how to really exploit all these iron zeppelins and lead butterflies". He concluded that it "offers Beatles harmonies, a roundabout song that preceded Yes's, and a straight remake of 'The Weight' in addition to the hilariously melosoulful John D. Loudermilk cover that provides its U.S. title. Ahh, the good old days."
