Allmusic.com gave Live at Cafe Au Go Go a 3 1/2 star review:
Although Tommy Flanders (who’d already left the band by the time this debut hit the streets) is credited as sole vocalist, four of the then-sextet’s members sang; in fact, Danny Kalb handles as many leads as Flanders (four each), Steve Katz takes center stage on Donovan’s “Catch the Wind,” and Al Kooper is featured on “I Want to Be Your Driver.” Kalb’s moody take on “Alberta” is transcendent, and the uptempo arrangement of “Spoonful” is surprisingly effective.
