Writing for Allmusic, critic Ann Wikstrom wrote of the album "There are entertaining song intros and bits of warm banter with the audience, too. Chris Smither is always at his best when he is performing live. In fact, he often says that he writes songs and records albums just so he can perform live, and not the other way around. Live As I'll Ever Be gives you a great front-row seat, any time you want it."[2] Barbara Flaska of PopMatters wrote in her review "Smither is a guitarist, singer, and songwriter to be reckoned with. He sings in a beautifully timbered deep voice. His guitar work blends strong roots with his own innovative stylings."[1]
