Critical reception
The Chicago Tribune wrote that "the album is done in classic Brown style and helped along by solid band support." The San Francisco Examiner determined that "Brown's piano work is loose, melodic and rhythmically irresistible." The Philadelphia Inquirer concluded that "Brown's powers of persuasion have sharpened over time." LA Weekly praised Brown's "silky baritone and impeccable phrasing." Entertainment Weekly opined that Brown's "whisper-soft baritone brings a wry elegance to stories of hard luck and bad love."

The Los Angeles Times' Mike Boehm listed the album as the 4th best of 1990. All My Life was chosen as the best blues album of 1991 by DownBeat. The Washington Post deemed the album "the finest album of his second-wind career."
