Sideways is an album by Norwegian guitarist and composer Jacob Young recorded for ECM in May 2006 and released on November 2, 2007. Young's quintet features trumpeter Mathias Eick, reed player Vidar Johansen and rhythm section Mats Eilertsen and Jon Christensen.




Reception



The AllMusic review by Matt Collar states, "Much like other ECM releases, with its mix of laid-back edginess and ambient, searching improvisations, Sideways works just as well on a cerebral, engaging level as on a background, afterglow level."
On All About Jazz, Budd Kopman observed, "Sideways is remarkable in how its many layers interact to produce music that combines beauty and intellectual rigor," while John Kelman wrote "Young's very strength is his ability to compel and evoke in the most understated fashion. The beautifully spacious Sideways finds him comfortably evolving, bringing together his personal biculturalism with a musical cosmopolitanism that transcends any single stylistic authority."
