Critical reception
The Chicago Reader called Carthy "a great instrumentalist and an expressive singer who can straddle the generational divide with soul and beauty."[7] The Sydney Morning Herald deemed the album the "cutting edge of contemporary English folk music."[3]
AllMusic wrote that "Red is electric folk-fusion mixed with modern modes, while Rice uses more traditional means with subtler modernization."[2]
