    The best tracks, though, come when Earle focuses on just simply rockin’.

    Steve Earle doesn't make the same kind of hi-test outlaw country he used to, but The Low Highway shows that his swagger hasn't completely disappeared.

    The Low Highway has the brains and passion of Earle's last few releases, even if it's not especially surprising. [May 2013, p.100]

    It's Springsteen territory, occupied with pride in songs like “21st Century Blues” and the elegiac closer “Remember Me”.

    It may not be as vital as the similarly-schizoid post-rehab records, but it's nice to know Earle can turn on that sort of talent at will. [Mar-Apr 2013, p.106]
