  The Allmusic critic Zac Johnson was critical of the album, writing that the live performance "seems clumsy and a little disturbing... and the various jokes about gays and masturbation seem awfully creepy from these guys... and while their humor on their original LPs seems bright and original, in 1989 their onstage banter seems forced, a little mean-spirited, and rarely funny. Unlike seasoned artists like Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson, whose journeys through life and show business have added some wisdom and depth to their performances, the Kingston Trio's travels seem to have made them seem more like Vegas comedians performing way off the strip."
