On All About Jazz, Doug Collette said, "Betty Cantor-Jackson's [recording] work is always redolent of a realism in the Dead's mix of instruments and it's further tribute to engineer Jeffrey Norman that he preserves that quality through the HDCD mastering.... No frayed or loose ends are apparent in the music, which the Grateful Dead parlay with a radiant confidence befitting their success on stage earlier in the year. Such virtue certainly isn't uncommon in the group's discography, only rare in that it is so robust throughout in this set." [4]

On AllMusic, Fred Thomas wrote, "[The album] documents this spirited, fun [concert] from the band, who seem in high spirits throughout two sets that volley back and forth between spacy jamming and tight musicianship. Fan favorites of the era are speckled throughout the collection, including an especially electric "Let It Grow" that blurs into an equally dynamic "Eyes of the World"." [5]
