At the time, he was the first artist to sign with PIR, after having already enjoyed a substantial recording career and chart success with other record labels.

The album was Rawls' third R&B chart-topper (the first since 1966), and reached No. 7 on the Billboard 200.[2] "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine" gave Rawls the biggest hit of his career, topping Billboard's R&B Songs chart and Adult Contemporary chart, and making No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100.[2]
All Things in Time was highly rated by critics upon release, due to the quality and variety of its material, production standards and Rawls' vocal performances.[citation needed] It is often cited as the best album of Rawls' tenure with PIR.[citation needed] In a retrospective review for Allmusic, Jason Elias described it as "...not only one of Rawls' best albums, it's also one of the finest from Philadelphia International".[1]
