Reception

The AllMusic review by Michael G. Nastos awarded the album 3½ stars, stating, "John Abercrombie's longstanding partnership with Mark Feldman has yielded several albums of exquisite music, and Wait Till You See Her is no different. The mood is naturally restrained, contemplative, and introspective as you would expect, while there's a common thread of healthy respect that keeps the quartet in the softer mezzo piano range... At the bottom line, it's another consistent and at times excellent effort from these tried and true modern musicians." [2]
