Till We Have Faces is the sixth album by saxophonist
Gary Thomas which was recorded in 1992 and released on the
JMT label.[1] As with his previous album While the Gate Is Open (1990), it features Thomas' interpretations of eight
jazz standards.
The
AllMusic review by Thom Jurek states, "This is Thomas' best moment on record thus far, and a casebook example of reinterpreting the jazz genre."[2] The
Chicago Tribune's Jack Fuller noted "The combination of Gary Thomas' whirling dervish tenor saxophone and Pat Metheny's guitar makes this an outstanding recording".[4]
