Time wrote: "He's 66 now, too old to be chasing the high notes, but the miles on Wilson's voice make his eternal innocence seem that much sweeter. The songs are slight ruminations on '60s L.A., some barely memorable, but as delivery devices for an optimistic soul, they do just fine" ("Downtime: 5 Things You Should Know About," 9/15/08, p. 67).
