AllMusic2019afafFred Thomas2019"Ready or Not indeed offers a glimpse of what another studio album from what turned out to be the group's later phase would have sounded like, only with the buffer of comfort that comes from them working out the songs on-stage. It's a document not quite like any of the Dead's hundreds of other archival releases, zeroing in on unfamiliar and exciting material. There's a bittersweetness in knowing that this is as much of an idea as we'll ever get for what was next on the agenda for the band when their time ran out".Læs anmeldelse
