Rolling Stone (positive) [3]

Allmusic rated the song positively, giving it four stars out of five. They said, "(Like to Get to Know You) was harder-rocking, bluesier, and more inventive in its folk stylings than anything on their debut album. The mix of sounds was actually quite startling in its own time and is engaging even 30 some years later".
