Perennially popular MOR vocalist Johnny Mathis was rarely out of the album charts in the early 1960s. Johnny’s Mood maintained his success rate on the US album chart. (US:4)
“Of the songs on the album, several are associated with other singers and it seems fascinating to hear Mathis' take on them and how well they compare with the work of others. In all, Mathis gives his customary polished performances of these well known songs, imbuing each with his own style.”
“While it shouldn't be necessary to say, Mathis delivers his own special brand of ethereal magic on classic standards like How High The Moon and April In Paris. This LP is a perfect introduction for younger fans who may be only beginning to scratch the surface of Mathis' prolific discography.”
"Johnny's Mood doesn't have quite as rich material as Faithfully, however, as any Mathis fan has come to learn, he always makes due and can get the most out of any song.”
“I love all the older albums by Johnny Mathis because his voice is smooth as velvet and the music brings back so many memories.”
“Lush string arrangements whisper, then soar, to ecstatic peaks, alternately embracing then setting free, the sensual voice of Johnny Mathis. Johnny is at his best here, mastering the lyric and phrase with ease and skill. Bring romance back into your life. This is the album you have been seeking.”
“He has a rare talent as he enjoys singing well written songs, puts his heart and soul into them and out comes perfection.” ,p> “Johnny's Mood is a classic. April In Paris and Once are two of my favourites. Folks Who Live On The Hill and In Return are two more greats. Another excellent album from the Mathis' prime.”
