Critical reception

Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic writes, "Although they weren't as good as The Cowsills, who served as at least partial inspiration for the group, The Partridge Family had their fair share of first-rate bubblegum singles in the early '70s. Greatest Hits does an excellent job of summarizing those glory days"^[1]
