Live and Well

Will Harris of PopMatters writes, "Live and Well is a document of Parton's 2002 tour, released simultaneously on CD and DVD, and, unlike a lot of live albums, this is a proper souvenir of one of her concerts, complete with the chatter between numbers that's so often cut from live records. Obviously, this is good news for her fans, many of who probably weren't able to catch one of those performances (she did only 14 shows); for others, however, it has its ups and downs."

Uncut says, "the return-to-the-mountain bluegrass of recent years ("The Grass Is Blue", "Shine", "Little Sparrow", "I'm Gone") is brilliantly served by one of the most irresistible forces in the history of country."

David McPherson of Exclaim! writes in his review that, "Live and Well confirms that musically and physically Parton is just that; as this country crooner approaches 60, she is still as energetic and youthful as ever."{{cite web |url=http://exclaim.ca/music/article/dolly_parton-live_well |title=Dolly Parton – Live And Well |last=McPherson |first=David |date=1 November 2004 |publisher=Exclaim! |access-date=23 February 2020 }}

The Austin Chronicle's Christopher Gray writes, "Ebullient as ever, Parton's banter is as much fun as the music; cornier than an Iowa silo, she's full of zingers."
