Allmusic.com gave Happy Sad a 4 1/2 star review:
Easily Tim Buckley’s most underrated album, Happy Sad was another departure for the eclectic Southern California-based singer/songwriter. After the success of the widely acclaimed Goodbye and Hello, Buckley mellowed enough to explore his jazz roots. Sounding like Fred Neil’s Capitol-era albums, Buckley and his small, acoustic-based ensemble weave elegant, minimalist tapestries around the six Buckley originals. … Lovingly under-produced by Jerry Yester and Zal Yanovsky, this is one of the finest records of the late ’60s.
