Critical reception

On AllMusic, Fred Thomas wrote, "Dave's Picks, Vol. 10: Thelma, Los Angeles, CA 12/12/69 captures the group in performance directly before they would enter the studio to record what would go on to be one of their most loved albums, and they're working through the material by playing seven of the eight songs that would be included there as well as an uncommonly high number of songs written or led by keyboardist Pigpen. On the last of a three-night stand at a mysterious California club simply called Thelma, the Dead turned in stellar performances of the aforementioned Workingman's Dead material as well as a half-hour jam on their bluesy live staple "Turn On Your Love Light"."
