Thom Jurek of AllMusic stated "Live at the Bohemia Caverns (in Washington, D.C.) was Lewis' second live date, and one that provided a blueprint for the later live dates that would put him near the top of the pop charts a year later with The In Crowd. The material on this set was very ambitious. This is a hip date...and like all of his Argo and Cadet live sides, should be chased down."[2]
