A Day in the Life is an album by the jazz guitarist Wes Montgomery, released in 1967.

The single "Windy" became his biggest Hot 100 hit, peaking at number forty-four.

His renditions of pop hits were played regularly on Top 40 radio.

In his AllMusic review of the album, Scott Yanow wrote: In most cases the guitarist did little more than play the melody, using his distinctive octaves, and it was enough to make him saleable.

Of his three A&M recordings, A Day in the Life (the first one) was by far the best and, although the jazz content is almost nil, the results are pleasing as background music.
