Music critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine from the website AllMusic notes that "this brief mid-concert fix perhaps illustrates the love and affection between the ii men". Furthermore, Erlewine remarks the on-stage relationship betwixt Clapton and Cale, saying "the chemical science is in that location along with a palpable amore between the two musicians, with Clapton post-obit Cale's lazy lead. It provides a squeamish dissimilarity to the heavy blues that dominates the rest of the album." Clapton's collaborations throughout the show-night were also positively rated by the critic, who finished his September 2016 review by calling Clapton's performance devoted nearly "of his set list to the guitar, which helps starting time the easy-rolling grooves of the Cale showcase. Combined, it amounts to one of his most satisfying live albums."[26] The website rated the anthology as i of the best albums of 2016.[30] The music online database JamBase awarded the release 5 out of five possible stars, rating the album "excellent". Critic Andy Kahn called the release a "archetype".[28] Paul Cashmere from Dissonance 11 reviewed the album positively.[29]

Journalist Hal Horowitz from the American Songwriter said in his review that the release date seems to be a decade too late, simply does non seem to "diminish" the "excellence" of the recording. Further, the critic explained that "this tour establish guitarists Derek Trucks and Doyle Bramhall ll bankroll Clapton and, more than importantly, pushing him out of his condolement zone. Merely it's the fabric, six tracks resurrected from Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs with Trucks substituting for Duane Allman, that puts this over the top." Horowitz as well recalled Cale'south performance on the album positively and summed upwardly that "since this is a single evidence, there is an ebb and flow that's palpable. Between that, the remarkably intense and fluid playing by Clapton with one of his finest bands, and stimulating song choices, this now becomes one of Clapton's best live recordings in a catalog already blimp with enough of terrific choices."[27]
