"Some of the best stuff on the record, like "Hands", starts in dark folk territory before opening up into a blues romp. "Little War" is a stand-alone gem, a spare and heartbreaking song that recalls the finest moments of Trouble is a Lonesome Town and matches with other highlights in Hazlewood's career. Most of the record can't match up to those moments, though".

"Something Special is too expert to sound tossed off, but it certainly doesn't sound fussed over, and the fact it was knocked out in four evenings sounds about right, though the skill of Hazlewood's accompanists allows this to sound expert and spontaneous at once ... it's a modest but fascinating piece of the puzzle of Hazlewood's career as a headliner".
