Allmusic[6]

In his review on Allmusic, Richard S. Ginell notes "Headin' Home goes even further down the road of commercial viability than its predecessor on Horizon, as Owens tries once again to sell some records. Most of the tracks are up-tempo workouts unapologetically aimed for the dancefloor, with rather mellifluous trumpet or flügelhorn lines cresting the waves of wah-wah guitars and semi-funky drumming. Which is not a bad thing in itself, given decent, memorable material -- which this LP mostly lacks".[6]
