Untitled

Reflections is a compilation album by American pop singer Andy Williams that was released in the UK on December 30, 1977, by the CBS Records division of Columbia. The subtitle on the cover reads, "A collection of 20 of my favorite songs", and a statement from Williams in the liner notes says, "Songs have a very special memories for all of us. They pinpoint moments in our time. On this album I have chosen 20 songs that do just that. I hope you like them." While there was one new song ("Sad"), the collection was otherwise a balanced mix of album cuts and chart hits from his years with Columbia Records, including the seven top 10 UK singles he'd had during this period.

On January 20, 1978, the album was awarded with Gold certification by the British Phonographic Industry for sales of 100,000 units in the UK. It entered the UK album chart the following week, on January 28, and reached number 2 over the course of 17 weeks.

The album was released on compact disc in 2007.
