Portrait

Portrait is the second album by the American pop group The Walker Brothers. Released in 1966, the album was their most successful and reached number three on the UK Albums Chart. The group's musical accompaniment was directed by Ivor Raymonde and Reg Guest and produced by John Franz. Receiving good to mixed reviews, the album was first released in both mono and stereo LP formats in August 1966. The album was later released on CD having been remastered and expanded in 1998. The sleeve notes were written by Keith Altham with photography by Dezo Hoffmann. Portrait was not released in the USA. In its place Smash Records compiled The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore as the group's second album. This alternate version substituted the majority of the album's tracks with A-sides, B-sides and tracks from their first EP, leaving only "Just For A Thrill", "Old Folks", "People Get Ready" and "Take It Like a Man".
