Johnny Mathis - Here's Johnny (Music CD)

Few crooners can claim that name with as much authority as Johnny Mathis. Although his style may seem rather old fashioned to those who grew up on rock & roll, Mathis's rich, vibrato-heavy voice and interpretative knack made him remarkably popular in the 1950s and `60s. This excellent set, which spreads 40 tracks over two discs, features "Sweet Lorraine," "Love Walked In," "Prelude to a Kiss," and a slew of other Mathis classics. Longtime fans are sure to find many of their favorites, and newcomers to Mathis will find this a fine place to start.
