AMG All Music Guide: Stephen Thomas Erlewine's review: "Live in Central Park doesn't work as a record, even though it does seem like being in the audience would have been fun."
Music-Critic.com: Peter Naldrett's review: "Crow's pocketful of hits and over-confidant cow-girl attitude culminate in a performance that is not worthy of the names Clapton and Hynde."
New Musical Express: "All she wants to do is have some fun. It's just that you're paying for it."
