Thom Jurek of AllMusic gave the album a positive review, praising it for being "not only unpolished, it's downright raw, crackling"; the editorial staff of the site gave it 3.5 out of five stars.[2] Kelly McCartney of Folk Alley also gave a positive review, finishing, "it an absolute exception to the rule of live records rarely capturing the magic in a room. Magic was, indeed, captured."[3] Hal Horowitz of Creative Loafing gave the release four out of five stars, with the verdict "The Indigo Girls revisit, refresh, and revive their catalog by challenging their fans to join them in breaking new ground".[4]
