Reception
AllMusic wrote that Get the Picture? was "a record that's just a few notches short of Rolling Stones level in the charisma department" and that "Pretty Things approach Rolling Stones' territory, and even in their off moments, they're flying at the same level as the Kinks' album tracks." Uncut, in a review of the band's studio albums box set, said that the album "showed they were eager to grow".
