Timeagain is an album by jazz saxophonist David Sanborn that was released by Verve in 2003.[1]

Critical reception[edit]

Paula Edelstein of AllMusic writes, "The all-masterful Time Again has something for everyone. It's romantic, it's funky, it's laid-back, and it's definitely one that should be in your music collection. In a sense, David Sanborn has pulled off one of the best recordings of his career."[1]

Geoffrey Himes of JazzTimes concludes his review with, "Once again Sanborn has demonstrated how it can be done right."[3]
