"It's Great to be Alive!, the sprawling, three-plus hour document of Drive-By Truckers's 2014 three-night stand at San Francisco's Fillmore Auditorium, is a carefully curated record that does a great job pretending to be a raw, unfettered representation of a single night".

"For a band that's made their name and living on the road, showering listeners with an endless stream of rock, It's Great to be Alive! is the modern blueprint for live albums. While unlikely to reach the commercial heights of live albums from the `70s, the Drive-By Truckers show their peers how it should be done in the here and now. Consider It's Great to be Alive! a formal invitation to the perpetual Rock Show that is the Drive-By Truckers".

" It's Great to Be Alive! is a bit less than the definitive document of the live DBT experience, but if you want to know why this is a great band and how good it can be on-stage, this set will tell you just about everything you need to know".
