The Sandpiper
About This Album
The film The Sandpiper is best-remembered today for Johnny Mandel's "The Shadow of Your Smile." Its soundtrack CD has 11 pieces on it, ten of which are variations of that one melody. Other than a straightforward version of the theme that features a vocal group, Jack Sheldon's trumpet is prominent throughout much of the haunting score; the one exception to the moody music is the brief R&Bish "Bird Bath" which was used in a nightclub scene. Otherwise this CD's value to listeners depends largely on how much one enjoys "The Shadow of Your Smile." ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide
