Writing for Rolling Stone, Rob Sheffield concluded the set "bristles with that kind of nonstop restless creative spirit — the raw Hamburg punk rock of Volume One, the trippy studio experiments of Volume Two, [and] the mature world-weary grit of Volume Three."[12] Tim Sendra noted in a review for AllMusic that "The added brightness and clarity given to the songs is a nice upgrade, so is the more compact packaging", concluding that "It will definitely appeal to Beatles' fans who don't have the original versions[,] and that seems like a very good reason for this set to exist."[10]
