Critical reception With a four out of five star rating Kit Aiken of Uncut called Gratitude "a kicking live album". Henry Edwards of the New York Times said "All of the music is carefully tooled, zestfully polished, relentlessly good‐natured rhythmic dance music, an amalgam of rhythm‐and‐blues, jazz and middle‐of‐the‐road pop that the group gleefully shouts, croons, squeals and growls. There's showmanship galore here, but strip that showmanship away and one discovers that Earth, Wind & Fire's music is built around one persistently repeated chord‐and not the world's most interesting chord either." Alex Henderson of Allmusic found that "Gratitude is one of EWF's finest accomplishments." Mike Kalina of the Pittsburgh Post Gazette claimed Gratitude "features a variety of superb rhythm and blues material with plenty of jazz overtones. The group's lyrics may not be the most innovative but they all fit perfectly into the patchwork of funk the group weaves. The musicianship of the group cannot be beat nor can the feeling that this group - my favorite in the R&B idiom - puts out." Tony Green of Spin exclaimed "A frightfully accomplished funk hit machine flexing its muscles live is truly a beautiful thing. And few had as much flex-worthy musical mass as these crossover kings. The White brothers melded proto-Afrocentricism with self help optimism, filling out their sound with Jazz leanings and swelling summer breeze ballads. An album that's capable at any moment of landing an emotional killer blow." Greg Kot of the Chicago Tribune found "an Ellingtonian fusion of styles on this live masterpiece." EWF went on to win
