In a review for AllMusic, William Ruhlmann wrote: "RatDog comes off as a Grateful Dead clone band with the Dead's surviving co-lead vocalist at the helm... In addition to the repertoire, there is the overall musical style of the band, which, despite the presence of a saxophone, has a very Dead-like feel. Add it up, and this is music Deadheads will welcome."[1]
Author Dean Budnick stated that, despite the presence of some "agreeable interpretations" of Dead material, "the release fails to deliver on the band's full resources."[2]
