Pinball (released January 30, 2015 in Germany by the label ACT Music – ACT 9032-2) is the 6'th album of the Norwegian saxophonist Marius Neset.

Neset and his comusicians here presents a shimmering kaleidoscopic album of different expressions and influences, and delight with compositional and instrumental complexity. At the same time, Neset sounds more mature, soulful and melodic than ever before.

The All About Jazz reviewer John Kelman awarded the album 4,5 stars and the review by Ian Patterson of the British newspaper The Guardian awarded the album 4 stars,The Irish Times reviewer Cormac Larkin awarded the album 4 stars.

The Guardian critique Ian Patterson, in his review of Neset's album Pinball states:
