The Shadow Of Your Smile was the final sixties top twenty LP from Johnny Mathis. His albums would continue to chart in the US for the next thirty years, but with one exception, they would be confined to the lower reaches. (US:9)
"Where his previous albums on Mercury Records recalled his earlier work for Columbia comprised as they were of Broadway show tunes, film music and standards, this album looks forward to Mathis' albums in his second Columbia Records period where he began to cover contemporary hits. This album is made up mostly of cover versions of current hits and songs from recent shows and films."
"Mathis had often turned to Hollywood for song inspiration and on this album he includes two current movie themes. The Shadow Of Your Smile won the Academy award as the year's best song in 1965. It was the love theme to the film The Sandpiper."
"I love all Mathis songs, It seems each one takes me on a journey. Just great music."
"Mathis really captures the essence of this wonderful song On A Clear Day."
