Michelle (album)

Michelle is an album by saxophonist Bud Shank recorded in 1966 for the World Pacific label.

Reception

AllMusic rated the album with 1 star; however, the average Amazon.com review rating is 4 stars. Some people in jazz saw this as Shank "selling out" to pop music; however, he already had his feet firmly planted in the populist Latin Jazz camp, and from a contemporary perspective the tunes he covers are largely enduring pop classics and not passing fads.
