Tim Reynolds performs a Masterpiece

"I'll start out by being totally honest with you and saying that I know of Tim Reynolds through my dedication to the Dave Matthews Band. Tim has been a staple with that group for many years, and by no means do I discredit him as a solo artist; I just found out about him through DMB. Regarding "See Into Your Soul", I must say my first listen to songs from it was not in a recorded format, but rather a live acoustic performance that Timmy performed at my school. I sat third row, the product of being 5th in line for tickets, and the experience was among the most profound in my extensive concert going career. Upon purchasing his latest effort, I was taken aback by how utterly amazing each track on the disc was. I have never heard an instrumental album that spoke to me the way this one did. It was as if the guitar was offering vocals and Tim was the one making the music himself. Tracks like "Hopeful Heresy" and "To Touch Yearning" were familiar to me based on Tim's performances with Dave Matthews, but the rest of the album proves that a single acoustic guitar, with the occasional sound effect, is capable of making one of the most eclectic mixes of music I have heard. I recommend this album to anyone who either plays guitar or just appreciates music."

Tim Reynolds Is A Master Musician

"If anyone would like to learn how to play the acoustic guitar, pick up "See Into Your Soul" by Tim Reynolds. He is definitely one of the top 10 acoustic guitar players of all time. I really do believe that, not just because I'm a fan but because of the way he plays and the melodies he comes up with in his head. Highlights include "See Into Your Soul", "Jemez Rolling Waves", "Open Up, Let It In" (the CD's best track), and "Yak". If you liked "Live at Luther College" with Dave Matthews you will love this CD!"

Half good and half God-awful

"There are 14 tracks on this album. Seven of which are beautiful, wistful acoustic melodies which will sweep you away...if you're into that. The other seven are I suppose what one would call "trance." Very experimental and by no means easy to listen to. I would get it just for the acoustic half though. It's worth it for that."
