    Rework is a must for toe-dippers and Glassheads alike. [Dec 2012, p.120]

    Rework is an inspired meeting of minds, proof that there is life after grinding out long-players.

    It's fun but nonessential. [Nov 2012, p.64]

    A lot of what's here doesn't really demonstrate what they can do to Philip Glass, but what Philip Glass has already done to them.

    The highlight is "NYC: 73-78," Beck's own 20-minute mastermix-cum-suite, which moves from piano meditation to synth-pop to Beach Boys-style chorale and back.

    Only Johann Johansson's airy decanting of Protest and two movements from chamber music Glassworks really tap Glass's sublime essence. [Dec 2012, p.88]

    Fans of either Glass or the remixers won't be too disappointed, but they won't be blown away, either. [No. 93, p.60]
