The website laut.de gave the album four out of a possible five points:
“[With the] drum formation Cold Steel from the States, Fox [...] has landed a treat. The choreographies of the guys alone are fun in themselves. […] Musically, the bunch that rocks the Wuhlheide roughly is beyond any doubt anyway. A newly arranged version of "Dickes B" (here: "Dickes Ende") concludes a concert recording that one would have liked to have attended. With a team player Peter Fox as the front turner, this results in a team that puts a big and beautiful final exclamation mark under the project "Stadtaffe". "
