Writing for Allmusic, critic William Ruhlman wrote that "Singer/songwriter Jeffrey Foucault likes to play in a familiar, slow-moving country-folk style; this is a guy who has been to the desert on "A Horse with No Name," searching for a "Heart of Gold." The lyrical reflections he expresses so introspectively also tend to be spare and allusive... For the most part, however, Foucault is a miniaturist as interested in evoking mood as meaning in his atmospheric music, expecting his listeners to fill in the blanks." David Kleiner of Minor 7th wrote "Writers should check out Foucault's similes, here ("singing / darker than the sea") and throughout ("smoking like a river / in the dark before the dawn"), as the comparison is always unexpected and richer for it... What you remember is, "When I had one good coat, I was warm." You disappear. Only Foucault's songs remain, as haunting as they are haunted."
