The Billboard review from 15 June 1963 selected the album for its pop spotlight, and commentated that "...both the devotees of country music and Dino will be pleased". [3] William Ruhlmann on Allmusic.com said that "The songs may have been Nashville products technically, but [Marty] Paich got no closer to real country music than the countrypolitan style...This was country music by way of Hollywood. But that suited Martin, who sounded as at ease as ever. If there was any criticism to be made of his approach, it was that he brought little sense of emotional turmoil to some of the romantic laments here". [1]

Everybody Loves Somebody is a 1964 album by Dean Martin on Reprise Records. The album was assembled quickly from B-sides and previously released album cuts recorded between February 1962 and April 1964 in order to capitalize on the success of the title track, but still reached number two on the albums chart and obtained Gold certification. It was released on the same day as the Dream with Dean studio album which also contained another version of "Everybody Loves Somebody", but not the version on the singles charts, hence the B-sides compilation had "The Hit Version" emblazoned on the cover and outsold the new studio album.
