criticism
Artur Schulz from laut.de generally rates the album as good and praises the vocal work in particular: "When it comes to polyphonic singing, Sam, Digger and Basti are even more secure in the saddle". He warns, however, that The Baseballs could only produce “frequent reworking of the tried and tested” ( criticism on laut.de ). Oliver Lippert from monstersandcritics.de thinks that Strings 'n' Stripes is a "promising album" ( review on monstersandcritics.de ).
success
As with the previous album Strike! the album was a bigger success than the released singles.
