AllMusic
This may be long on slow tunes and laid-back melodies, but that doesn't make High Mileage dull. There's a certain level of introspection to the songs, a meditative quality, that gives the album depth, but the songs (half of which are originals) are strong and Jackson's delivery, as ever, is warm and compelling, making High Mileage a startling, rewarding departure from his previous records and proof of his depth as an artist.

Country Standard Time
The title of Alan Jackson's latest doesn't mean he has gone high energy. In fact, there is a pervasive, low-key consistency throughout the 10 songs. Jackson doesn't break new ground except on the first single . . . it's tried and true, but once again AJ serves up a strong, cohesive album.

Entertainment
September 4, 1998. Jackson’s largely autobiographical eighth release, though, is solid but unremarkable.

The heartbreak inherent in High Mileage doesn’t keep it from being an excellent listen. Jackson’s pain is couched in the rich and easygoing playing of his backing band.

Chicago Tribune
September 20, 1998. Alan Jackson is every inch the star, but unlike Garth Brooks, he harbors no grandiose crossover dreams and requires minimal fanfare to connect with proudly retro/traditional-sounding tunes.

Nostalgia Is Evil
November 7, 2017. But when I listened to High Mileage during my freshman year of college, I found a gem.
