Reception
Template:Music ratings In a review for AllMusic, Thom Jurek called the album "an incendiary, soulful, and wildly adventurous set," and wrote: "This is the record to turn the heads of those who haven't gotten hip to Trucks' bottleneck magic. This performance is so inspired, so utterly spellbinding, it transcends the genre classifications it employs to get the music across."[2]
Doug Collette of All About Jazz praised "the dual virtues of individual instrumental chops and band unity" on the album, and noted that "the profoundly imaginative approach Derek Trucks takes to electric guitar is all the more extraordinary given his comparative youth." He commented: "the purity of inspiration and execution over the course of two-plus hours will doubtless bring delight to any true aficionado of progressive music."[3]
Writing for Jambands.com, Jesse Jarnow stated: "Despite the fact that Trucks lends his name to the outfit, the music here goes to great lengths to prove that they are, in fact, a band... The sense of interplay between them is palpable."[4]
