The Allmusic review by Stephen Cook states "Although this is a great Taylor release, certainly essential for fans, Live in Bologna might not be the best disc for newcomers. Curious listeners should start with either of Taylor's mid-'60s Blue Note discs (Unit Structures and Conquistador!), or check out later titles like 1986's live solo piano recording For Olim and his A&M trio date In Floresence".
The compact disc reissue of this album omits the encore at the end and edits about five minutes of music form what was side two of the original 2-LP set.
