Reviews :
“Guitar wizards John Scofield and Pat Metheny have consistently made commercially successful, accessible music while remaining true to their improvisational leanings. It's no surprise that their collaboration sounds so relaxed, fluid, and musically serene. Listeners shouldn't necessarily expect a series of slashing duels, but it's certainly not vapid new age or retrograde fusion. Scofield and Metheny divide compositional duties and play masterful, expressive solos. Guitar fans will be especially impressed with the mastering, which makes Scofield and Metheny's guitars sound right in the room. Even those who don't like sessions without horns, brass, or keyboards shouldn't spurn this one; it still has plenty of muscle.” AllMusic Review by Ron Wynn
“The 11 tracks, all originals, run the gamut from absolute barn-burners, acoustic ballads, a tune that could be best described as light salsa, to a blues track, some synth and distortion-laden laid-back funk, two bouncy, sailor-esque jaunts, and a few tracks that could creatively be described as 'post-modern bop-ish'. The album is an absolute kaleidoscope of color, character, and consistency, delivering excellent track to track sequencing and effective flow. The session incorporates some wonderful palette-cleansers that help the listening experience simmer down between some of the more fiery tracks. This results in an effective balance between electric distortion and 'synthiness' and good ole' classical nylon and steel string technique... The mastering and pressing are beyond reproach, and in my experience are easily among the best within the whole series - especially factoring in how much improved this version is compared to the original CD. Despite its higher price tag, its more modern approach to jazz, as well as the stigma that surrounds vinyl sourced from digital (in this case, 24/88.2), it wouldn't be too far-fetched to say that when this series runs its course (not anytime soon!) this could be at the top of the series' many sonic gems. Add a gorgeous Stoughton gatefold jacket, and a flawless RTI pressing and you have a wonderful reissue that's a fresh, modern, sonic-thrill ride outside the familiar 50's and 60's jazz vault. well worth exploring.” Ryan Clarin, Analog Planet
