Reception

The Allmusic review by Rick Anderson awarded the album 3 stars, stating, "Ralph Towner's a difficult case. The snoozy noodlings of his former band Oregon (band), Oregon can be downright stupefying, but his solo work is often, though not always, quite a bit more interesting. ''Open Letter'' walks both sides of the line, but succeeds more often than it fails.Anderson, R
