The Best Years of Our Lives
Donald A. Guarisco of AllMusic, in a retrospective review, felt the album was even more "ambitious" and "artsy" than "The Best Years of Our Lives". He said: "Unfortunately, "Timeless Flight" neglects the strong pop hooks that made "The Best Years of Our Lives" so appealing. Much of "Timeless Flight" finds Harley getting bogged down in deliberately impenetrable wordplay and songs that, despite slick arrangements, are rather hookless vehicles for the verbose lyrics." Guarisco picked the two tracks "Red is a Mean, Mean Colour" and "Black or White" as recommended AMG tracks.
