Terry Staunton of Record Collector wrote of Disc One: "The disc offers an insight into the band's early versatility, though with the exception of the pounding "Know Who You Are", their self-penned material comes across as disjointed and lacking focus. The second CD captures a band at the peak of their glam stomp." These long-lost radio sessions give some feeling of how they arrived in the peace'n'love era like a force-10 gale.

The Guardian said: "This is a treat, tracing the Black Country rockers' fascinating 1969-72 progress from a band Tony Blackburn introduces as "the skinhead set" to the biggest pop phenomenon since Beatlemania. This is Slade before the hits, a raw, rocking high paced crew. Upon release, Classic Rock stated: "For those who regard Slade as nothing more than a '70s hit machine, Live at the BBC is gonna be a right old shock.
