Sold for a Smile was the third and final album from Canadian rockers the Gandharvas, released at home on Watch Music in 1997 and picked up internationally by MCA the following year. By April 1998 it had moved 21,000 copies in Canada.
It's moody, textured alternative rock, all shimmering guitars and brooding atmosphere, with "Downtime" as one of its standouts. The 1998 MCA edition sweetened the deal with a cover of Cyndi Lauper's "Time After Time" and a fresh recording of "The First Day of Spring", the band's 1994 hit.
