''The Movie Song Album'' is a 1966 studio album by Tony Bennett. The album consists of songs from films, opening with the theme from ''The Oscar'', in which Bennett had recently appeared. With this project of such high quality of song material and collaborators, he was to describe the album in his autobiography as his "all time favorite record". 〔Bennett, ''The Good Life'', pp. 186-87.〕 Johnny Mandel was the musical director, and he and Neal Hefti and Quincy Jones arranged and conducted their own compositions on the album. Luiz Bonfá played the guitar on his two songs, "Samba de Orfeu" and "The Gentle Rain". The pianists Tommy Flanagan, Jimmy Rowles and Lou Levy all collaborated, each on one song. Bennett's recording of "The Shadow of Your Smile" won Mandel and Paul Francis Webster the Grammy Award for Song of the Year at the Grammy Awards of 1966, and Bennett performed the song at the 38th Academy Awards, where it won the Academy Award for Best Original Song. == Track listing == # "Maybe September" (from ''The Oscar'') (Ray Evans, Percy Faith, Jay Livingston) – 4:03 # "Girl Talk" (from ''Harlow'') (Neal Hefti, Bobby Troup) – 3:14 # "The Gentle Rain" (from ''The Gentle Rain'') (Luiz Bonfá, Matt Dubey) – 2:12 # "Emily" (from ''The Americanization of Emily'') (Johnny Mandel, Johnny Mercer) – 3:25 # "The Pawnbroker" (from ''The Pawnbroker'') (Quincy Jones, Lawrence) – 3:08 # "Samba de Orfeu" (from ''Black Orpheus'') (Bonfá) – 2:08 # "The Shadow of Your Smile" (from ''The Sandpiper'') (Mandel, Paul Francis Webster) – 3:38 # "Smile" (from ''Modern Times'') (Charlie Chaplin, Geoffrey Claremont Parsons, John Turner) – 3:34 # "The Second Time Around" (from ''The Second Time Around'') (Sammy Cahn, Jimmy Van Heusen) – 2:44 # "Days of Wine and Roses" (from ''Days of Wine and Roses'') (Henry Mancini, Mercer) – 2:58 # "Never Too Late" (from ''Never Too Late'') (Evans, Livingston, Rose) – 3:25 # "The Trolley Song" (from ''Meet Me in St. Louis'') (Ralph Blane, Hugh Martin) – 2:35 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Movie Song Album」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
