"Arranged chronologically, the set charts an internal breakdown that manifests in increasingly hostile performances ... Marred by atrocious sound quality, this set of live recordings nonetheless captures one of the great rock bands in the captivating chaos of their demise".

"Despite the audio drawbacks, this set does paint a vivid picture of The Stooges in their terminal phase, self-destructively zooming towards oblivion without a backwards glance ... This is the sound of a band pushing already hostile audiences as far as they could and the tense, spite-ridden songs gave no respite. This is not a comfortable experience, but an essential one for Stooges fans, collecting the post-Raw Power material and telling the story of their demise. Like re-watching a disaster classic, just because we already know the catastrophic ending doesn't make the ride any less thrilling".
