Critical reception
In a positive review of the album, '' Billboard'' said, "Beginning with her beautiful hit single, Miss Parton sings a variety of songs which demonstrate her stature in this business. It's an outstanding album, full of great songs, most of which she wrote herself, and covering a great many subjects. Some are ballads, some up-tempo, and she handles everything with grace." The review noted "If I Could Cross Your Mind", "Gettin' Happy", and "Once Upon a Memory" as the best tracks on the album. The review concluded with a note to record dealers, saying that the album has "an outstanding cover, which merits prominent display." Another positive review of the album from '' Cashbox'' said, "Whether with Porter or by herself the inimitable songbird Dolly Parton will have an avid following nwhatever she chooses to do or whomever she chooses to sing with. Her voice is light, airy, and deliciously unique. She has a vocal style and timbre that truly set her apart from the other female contenders. The collection of material is representative and Dolly carries all the tunes off with superb excellence. Included with the title track which is her present charted single is "If I Cross Your Mind" that is a ballad of prime degree exemplifying Dolly's very special warble. The review noted "Take Me Back", "Sacred Memories", and "Blackie, Kentucky" as the best tracks on the album.Track listing
