Reception
Ron Hart of  Billboard gave the album a positive review, saying "As good as it may be, 'Live Mix' is no substitute for the originals. But if you're in search of the best driving music of 2001, peep no further than this right here." Stanton Swihart of Allmusic gave the album 4 stars, saying the album was "A bit rough in spots, but no matter -- funk is supposed to be messy. And this album is funk to the bone."
