Reception

Writing for Pitchfork Media, Stephen Thomas Erlewine scored this compilation 6.8 out of 10, criticizing the sequencing for "emphasiz[ing] continuity over evolution" and glossing over two decade's of Crow's career by emphasizing tracks from her first few albums. [1] Editors of AllMusic Guide scored this release four out of five stars, with reviewer Timothy Monger calling this "a testament to Sheryl Crow's staying power and a generous overview of the singer/songwriter's range of strengths".
