Windmills of Your Mind (album)

Windmills of Your Mind is an album by the saxophonist Bud Shank recorded in 1969 for the Pacific Jazz label.

[1] The album features music by Michel Legrand who also provided the arrangements.

In a review for JazzWax, Marc Myers wrote that, on the album, Shank "wasn't turning on or selling out.

Instead, his hard sound and all-out blowing on alto sax and flute gave the music a speeding-MG, mid-life crisis sophistication.

On Windmills of Your Mind, he fed Michel Legrand's jazz-based pop melodies through the Bud Shank jazz grinder, resisting the temptation to convert the film tunes into adult contemporary fare.
