Critical reception

AllMusic gave the album a positive review, and wrote: "Based around Denzil's everyman voice and workmanlike acoustic guitar, the well-recorded tunes are usually augmented by drums, bass, jangly electric guitar, and other well-chosen instruments. This excellent album and artist were nearly completely overlooked."[2] Billboard praised the "clever" lyrics and "charmingly rough-edged" singing.[1] The Washington Post declared that "every one of the 16 songs on Pub boasts an ear-catching melody driven by an energetic, economical rhythm section."[5]
