Critical receptionβ»
On AllMusic, Timothy Monger said, "The last show of their winter/spring tour, Vol. 21 finds the Dead stretching out over two very long sets which, in spite of their length, do not contain either of their major gig-stretchers of the era. In place of "Dark Star"/"The Other One", fans were treatedββto a whopping 34-song marathon... Several nice long jams can be, found, particularly in the second set, making for a diverse and engaging listen."
