AllMusic reviewer Stephen Thomas Erlewine gave the album four and a half stars out of five, stating "Solo Collection performs a welcome service by collecting the highlights from his decidedly uneven solo albums, including all of his biggest hits. Not only is it a perfect introduction, it's arguably the most consistent solo record Frey ever released."

The album did not chart in its initial 1995 release, but reached number 82 on the U.S. Billboard 200 in 2016 after Frey's death.
