The High Windows is the only studio album by the Israeli pop rock group the High Windows, released in April 1967 on Hed Arzi Music. Forming in late 1966, the High Windows initially had no intentions of recording a studio album, with their demos, which featured songs that were influenced by the style of bands such as the Beatles, the Mamas & the Papas, and the Turtles, being intended solely for their own amusement. The band later proceeded to record an album after listening to their demos, with the production being handled by former Yarkon Bridge Trio member, Benny Amdursky. Following its release, the High Windows went on a tour of Israel and, later in late 1967 and early 1968, a tour of Europe, eventually re-recording two songs from the album in French. While initially receiving mixed reception on account of its foreign-influenced musical style, The High Windows is today considered one of the first successful Israeli rock albums and a breakthrough in Israeli music. It has also frequently been ranked in publication listings of the greatest Israeli albums of all time.
