Reception
Writing for American Songwriter, Grant Britt stated that this album "mesmerizes" and the vocals are "like hearing the voice of God". In The Arts Fuse, Scott McLennan called this release "a snapshot of a vibrant octogenarian artist who is still moving forward" that will please blues purists with Mahal's musicianship. Swingin' Live at the Church in Tulsa was an editor's pick in Spill Magazine, where Ljubinko Zivkovic rated it 9 out of 10, praising the sextet of musicians and continuing that the music is "the good old blues in its purest (electric) form and that mastery that has not left him so far shines, both in his, the band’s playing and Taj Mahal’s always incredible vocal delivery".
