Chart performance

In Flanders, the album stayed seven weeks on the chart, in Wallonia twelve weeks, making Belgium the most successful European territory in which the album reached the official national charts.

Critical reception

For his AllMusic review, critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine notes the album is rare "star-studded" release, featuring "British classic rock royalty" with artists like "Roger Waters, the Who, The Rolling Stones and Eric Clapton". Erlewine, however, dislikes that "there is nothing from Kanye West and Dave Grohls collaboration with Paul McCartney" on the album. The critic mentions Eric Clapton's performance, stating "Clapton [is really] tearing into the Derek & the Dominos song 'Got to Get Better in a Little While'". Finishing his review for the music website, Erlewine awarded the release three out of five possible stars.
