Reception
Critics gave differing opinions on the music and lyrics of Smile & Wave. When reviewing the album's music, the Calgary Herald said the album went for the "rock jugular from start to finish",[5] though the Toronto Star called the Headstones' work "a murky, steaming cauldron of pungent rock 'n' roll".[7]
Alternatively, reviewers gave mixed reviews for Hugh Dillon's performance. The Edmonton Journal said Dillon's personality was better than his singing,[6] while the Ottawa Journal felt that Dillion's sarcastic lyrics were almost too much for the album.[8]
