Johnny - JOHNNY MATHIS****

Easy Does It/The Most Beautiful Girl In The World/Miracles/When The World Was Young/Never Never Land/Poor Butterfly/Jump For Joy/Joey Joey Joey/I Can’t Believe That You’re In Love With Me/I Love You/Weaver Of Dreams/No Man Can Stand Alone

Perennial hit maker Johnny Mathis charted again with Johnny, a blend of standards, show tunes and new compositions. It was his first album with arranger Don Costa. (US:20)

"With Costa’s arrangements fitting like a glove this is one of Johnny's best."

"No big hits on here, maybe, but a more solid track-by-track Johnny Mathis album you'd be hard pressed to find."

"Have loved his voice and choice of music since the late 1950s. He is still the best ballad singer of all time, in my opinion."

"There are absolutely no words that can adequately describe the purity, the mystical and the magic of Johnny's voice."

“There are many songs he has recorded such as Weaver Of Dreams that brought out the artistry of this great singer. The song just seemed tailor made for him. Also included on the album is Miracles, which didn't make it on the Billboard charts but is sung so beautifully by this legendary singer."
