Critical reception

Mike DeGagne of AllMusic gave praise to Power's songwriting being "way above 1997's Mother Nature Calls" and his musicianship being "extremely sharp" throughout the track listing, while also highlighting Peter Wilkinson's performance as "more professional and focused" than with his other bands, concluding that, "Even though none of the songs can match the strength of "Guiding Star" Magic Hour still stands up as the group's second best recording."
