Music website Allmusic gave Stack Waddy four out of five stars. Reviewer Dave Thompson highlights the work as one of the "must hear" rock albums of the early 1970s, pointing out the brutal and uncompromising interpretations on many songs as one of the most striking features of the album. He ends his comment by saying that: "...this is one of those few albums that genuinely requires you to wear protective clothing".
