"This duo works as well together as Herb Ellis & Joe Pass, with the same amount of skill and taste. Definitely great listening at home, relaxing after a long day at work. The mood is subdued yet warm and enveloping. This makes me wish that they had worked together for more than just this one disc."

"I'm a huge Abercrombie fan and this album is one of my favorites. Scofield and Abercrombie dig down deep into some jazzy blues lines that make these two guitar players undeniably some of the most creative to ever play the guitar. Abercrombie is magical as always and Scofield is young, bold, and worthy to share the light with this jazz god. I feel like Abercrombie is passing the torch on to another generation. The album [Timeless] materialized the jazz-rock-fusion era by crossing boundaries and steering music into new directions (an unbeatable accomplishment.) This has been handed off to Scofield who has ever since been attempting to move jazz onto a new canvas."
