"Boots No. 1 plays less like an expansion of Revival than a document of a fertile period of creativity in the life of Gillian Welch, and while fans of the original album will revel in it, you don't have to be familiar with it to be dazzled by the subtle passion, intelligence, and eloquence of this music".

"This 20th-anniversary set fills a bootlegger's jug with 21 outtakes and demos of Orphan Girl, Annabelle and the rest. The pick of its eight previously unreleased songs are the caustic I Don't Want to Go Downtown and the homely Wichita, but every drop is delicious".

"On this collection of officially sanctioned archival bootlegs, we can hear the roots country icon Gillian Welch in the process of discovering and honing her inimitable voice".

"På sin 1996-debut, 'Revival', skrev og sang Welch, som om hun og den guitarspillende makker, David Rawling, sad i vejkanten foran Appalacherne i 1920'erne. Med den forskel, at de ikke dyrkede folk med tilfældige ridser, men foldede fortiden ud som delikat og moderne sangskrivning. 'Boots 1' er skitser og demoer fra dette mesterlige album ... Sangene er stadig vibrerende smukke og giver indblik i det øjeblik, Welch fandt og formede sin utrolige stemme".
