- Photograph is an album released by American singer Melanie in 1976, her only release on Atlantic Records. The album contains "Cyclone" which was released as a single. Despite making a publicity tour on American Bandstand and The Brady Bunch Hour to promote the single, it failed to chart in America. Ahmet Ertegün, who had signed Melanie to his label, was credited with creative direction on the album, was involved with the album's recording, and present at all vocal sessions and mixes. The album was heralded by The New York Times as "one of the finest pop albums of the year." In their review, Cash Box magazine referred to Melanie as "one of our best folk-rock stylists" and that she was "surrounded by excellent instrumental tracks" on the album and that "there is not a weak song in the package." Billboard magazine singled out "Cyclone" as "the most powerful vocally and lyrically and one of the best songs she's ever recorded." AllMusic noted that the album was "very much Melanie's own victory - her material was a revelation, and more sophisticated than anything she'd ever accomplished before." The album went largely unnoticed by the public. The album was only released in the United States, Australia and New Zealand. For reasons unknown, Atlantic Records pulled the album from distribution shortly after its release. The album was reissued by Rhino Records in 2005 as an individually numbered limited edition of 3,500 copies. The reissue contained a remastered version of the album plus a second disc of tracks recorded during the same sessions. (en)
