Critical reception

On AllMusic, Tom Jurek wrote, "Attempting to capture the loose, easy feel of Highway Call and combine it with the more blues-driven sound of the Allmans, Betts was largely successful though the record does suffer a tad from overly slick production.... Great Southern is a very fine album that despite its polish holds a wealth of fine songs and truly astonishing playing within its grooves."
