"Playing the 60s will not just bring back fond memories, it will take you to new and exciting places, the mark of an excellent album".

"This is stellar performing. Tolling's playing is near unbelievable ... Playing the 60s is more than a simple exercise in nostalgia. It is popular music brought into jazz in such a way that the music transcends itself, at that point where the creative blade is losing electrons from its finely honed edge while folding in on itself. Yes, this music is that good".

"The concept is clever: an album consisting of familiar tunes from the 1960s. Idea-wise, that gets Playing The 60s halfway through the critical door. But do the performances take it all the way toward a rave review? ... Make no mistake, there is some serious blowing here ... But disappointing moments prevail".

"Jeg kan kun ende med at give Tolling points for den gode idé (for manden har jo ret: Der kom virkelig masser af god musik i 1960erne, jazz eller ikke-jazz), men også ærgre mig over at CDen er så ujævn".
