In a review of the CD version of the album on AllMusic, Stephen Thomas Erlewine states that it "takes some odd turns in its 18 tracks" and that "there are a few beloved non hits ("Tombstone Shadow," "Bootleg") and several hits ("Bad Moon Rising," "Green River," "Proud Mary") just enough to make you realize all the other songs are missing ("Who'll Stop the Rain," "Travelling Band," "Have You Ever Seen the Rain," "Lodi," for starters)." and that "this is enjoyable but there so many terrific CCR comps out there, it's hard to see why you'd select this one over the other tiles."[1]
