In a review for AllMusic, Hal Horowitz called the recording "an impressively diverse album that's performed with fire, passion, and a sophistication that's always at the heart of the guitarist's classy approach." [1]

Bill Milkowski, writing for DownBeat , described the album as "a revelation from the great beyond," and noted: "Herring's striking originals... demonstrate the scope of his open-minded musicality on his second release as a leader." [5]

Ian Patterson of All About Jazz commented: "Subject to Change Without Notice, whilst stylistically diverse, could be classified as a blues album, as the blues lies at the core of the playing. Herring, for his part, has never sounded more relaxed, nor in finer tune, on what is a highly enjoyable recording." [6] AAJ's Alan Bryson stated: "This is an album that keeps me coming back for more, and eager to discover what [Herring's] musical future holds," while Doug Collette remarked: "Herring fully participates but declines to hog the spotlight; his humility may be his greatest asset, apart from his lightning touch." [8]

Writing for Relix , Scott Bernstein called the album "exceptional," and stated: "Subject to Change Without Notice finds Herring mashing disparate genres such as jazz fusion, blues, psychedelic rock and bluegrass with ease." [9]

Brian Robbins of Jambands.com wrote that the album "covers a lot of ground and takes you to many different places. And Jimmy Herring and friends prove to be great tour guides." [10]

Glide Magazine's Bryan Rodgers commented: "Subject To Change Without Notice is certainly a guitar record first, and that can be a dangerous thing in the wrong hands. Fortunately, Herring has the humility and common sense to showcase the rest of the players as well, making this album so much more: one of the most notable instrumental releases of the year." [7]

In an article for Premier Guitar , Jason Shadrick, referring to the Jeff Beck album, stated: "This is Herring's Wired, a snapshot of a stylistically unmatched guitar giant who not only has chops galore, but knows when to take his foot off the gas and tug on your heartstrings with tone and taste." [11]
