AllMusic reviewer Bruce Eder stated "One of Bo Diddley's least-known albums ... at the point when none of his records were selling in America. With an edgy, raunchy sound and modern record techniques (it's in stereo), Diddley and band come up with a solid '60s version of his original sound. The title track is a real jewel... Other tracks sound like they'd have worked well as part of extended jams of the kind that Diddley did on-stage ... There is some filler here ... but that can be forgiven in view of the strength of the rest of the material.".[3]

gollark: It might end up causing horrible inflation if you just arbitrarily summon money.
gollark: This works for me, but it doesn't always. Someone making ImageMagick may have to do boring unfun stuff to keep it usable, and may not be paid.
gollark: Well, in my case, I make random stuff which is "useful" to me and release it upon an unsuspecting world in case someone wants it.
