| AllMusic |   [2] |
AllMusic's Bruce Eder stated: "Nine songs recorded double-quick in one session, with Lowell Fulson on lead guitar on most of it. The rare embellishment on a Hooker release makes for unusually complex and rewarding listening, instrumentally speaking, beneath Hooker's ominous vocals. The textures here are very crisp and vivid, with a crunchiness that should make this an LP of choice for Hooker's rock fans, much more so than, say, the Canned Heat collaborations ... The uncredited band that shows up on some of these cuts is loose enough to follow Hooker, and he and Fulson play like one person".[2]
