In their review of the album, Cashbox noted the singer "directs a kittenish, sexy voice at the bachelors at large as she purrs her way through a bag of standards and recent biggies...could be a brisk seller."^[5]

Ann-Margret re-recorded the track "I Wanna Be Loved" for the 1966 film, The Swinger and the accompanying album, Songs from The Swinger (And Other Swingin' Songs).
