All Music Guide Review

No Regrets found the Walker Brothers returning as an accomplished mainstream pop act, capable of turning out appealingly professional covers of folk, soul and pop songs. Its follow-up, Lines, took that glossy veneer a little too far, as the group spent more time on production and not enough on substance. There are some good songs here -- Jimmy Cliff's "Many Rivers to Cross," Randy Newman's "Have You Seen My Baby," Jesse Winchester's "Brand New Tennessee Waltz" -- but even those are given dull arrangements and are blandly sung, making Lines a thoroughly uninvolving record. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
