"First Rose of Spring is sweet and elegiac, a record that sways gently in the breeze, only picking up its pace when it's time to swing through a cover of Jimmy Dean's "Just Bummin' Around." Original songs are few and far between here. Nelson and his longtime lieutenant Buddy Cannon - who is back once again behind the production boards - co-wrote the romantic "Blue Star" and heartbroken ballad "Love Just Laughed," solidly constructed numbers that are overshadowed by covers that benefit from the singer's increased heft".

"Willie Nelson plukker andres countryroser med stil (...) på sit nye album 'First Rose of Spring' ... Med to undtagelser er alle sangene på First Rose of Spring skrevet af andre. Det er Nelsons coverversioner af numre, der har det tilfælles, at de handler om alderdom, om kærlighed og om kærlighedens alderdom. De bliver aldrig sentimentale, men i længden virker det magelige tempo og brugen af guitar og pedal steel en anelse ensformigt".
