The Shadow Of Your Smile by Astrud Gilberto - DeepRiffs

ALBUM

Astrud Gilberto second solo album, THE SHADOW OF YOUR SMILE, which at 25 minutes is one of the shortest LPs ever released. It's a good one though, as Astrud breaks free of bossa nova typecasting and emerges as a full-fledged '60s songbird, with her near definitive version of "The Shadow Of Your Smile." A special hybrid, she's neither a Brazilian nor an American singer, and not really an "international' one either. Her wistful, amateur sound has worn extremely well however--it has the virtue of simplicity and honesty as her absolutely definitive version of "Funny World" from the now forgotten Italian exploitation film MALAMONDO proves.
