Critical reception
The single was Cash Box magazine's Pick of the Week.
Cash Box (June 23, 1962):
Ike & Tina Turner should soon be represented on the hit lists with this new Sue stand. It's an infectious twist'er, tabbed "You Should'a Treated Me Right," that has Tina brightly belting against a sock femme and Ike Turner-led instrumental support. Another pop-r&b triumph for the artists. Fine beat-ballad blueser on the other end can also score.
