reception
According to Thomas Patsch from the Austrian online magazine Stormbringer.at , fans can “enjoy almost an hour of organically warm rock sounds that found salvation in the 1970s” with the live album, but criticized the fact that “there was a little more audible audience response would have given the disc an additional kick ”. Patsch rated Blues Pills Live with four out of five points. For Frank Thiessies from the German magazine Metal Hammer “the quartet plays all the trumps on stage” and “exudes an almost tangible energy and magic that is currently unparalleled”. He rated the album six out of seven.
