ReviewsRanked #75 in Spin Magazine's "90 Greatest Albums of the '90s.", Included in A.P.'s "10 Essential Alt-Country Albums" - "...Earle comes across as a fork-tongued renegade, constantly defiant.", "...If I FEEL ALRIGHT doesn't deliver the grit that has been Earle's gift to rock and country, his roots-rock joie de vivre sends no apologies, only a healthy message for the '90s: Don't feel bad about feeling good." - Rating: A, 9 (out of 10) - "...A cautionary threat, I FEEL ALRIGHT gives grief to anybody who doesn't acknowledge life's tragic ambiguity--defeat always shadows victory, sadness always mirrors happiness....He's a passionately volatile SOB and there's a hint of menace in almost every lyric he gets near, no matter how damp with sentiment...", "...there's a grim undercurrent to Earle's patented bad-boy drawl as he swaggers through these 12 dour Canterbury tales....But Earle...still has a fluid way with a pop-twanging hook that slaps most of his material across...", 4 Stars (out of 5) - "...Though much of the album offers a tour of one man's hell--with Earle as a roadhouse Dante--the songwriter's creative resurgence ultimately supplies his redemption...", Ranked #6 in the Village Voice's 1996 Pazz & Jop Critics' Poll.
