Johnny Mathis Le crooner américain Johnny Mathis connaît le succès dans les années 1950 et 1960 avec les titres « Wonderful, Wonderful », « Chances Are », « A Certain Smile » et quelques autres, devenant l'un des plus gros vendeurs de disques de cette période. Dépassé par les générations suivantes, il tente de se maintenir avec « When a Child Is Born » (1976), « Too Much, To Little , Too Late » avec Deniece Williams (n°1 en 1978), et d'autres duos, sans jamais retrouver l'aura d'antan.

"Merry Christmas" is the first Christmas album by American pop singer Johnny Mathis and was released by Columbia Records on October 6, 1958.

The album debuted on Billboard magazine's list of the 25 Best-Selling Pop LPs in the US in its December 15, 1958, issue and got as high as #3 during its initial four-week run.

During the first lockdown, violist Mathis Rochat rediscovered the music of Rachmaninoff for himself. He was so taken with the works of the Russian late romantic that he decided to put together a complete programme with his own arrangements for viola and piano. The aim was to give the Russian-inspired melodies completely new colours through the choice of instruments.

Real Gone Music and Second Disc Records continue their ongoing celebration of Johnny Mathis’ legendary catalog with a new expanded two-for-one CD and this one’s even more packed with signature Mathis songs than usual! 1976’s "I Only Have Eyes for You" and 1977’s "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me" both reunited Mathis with a pair of his favorite collaborators, producer Jack Gold and arranger Gene Page, for silky renditions of the day’s pop smashes as only Mathis could deliver them. Page brought the same style of lush orchestration he perfected with Barry White to these sets featuring songs by the top songwriters of the day including Neil Sedaka (“The Hungry Years”), Alan O’Day (“Do Me Wrong, But Do Me”), Stephen Sondheim (“Send in the Clowns”), Marvin Hamlisch (“One”), and the team of Michael Masserand Gerry Goffin (“Do You Know Where You’re Going To,” “I Always Knew I Had It in Me”).

"For Christmas" is a latter-day holiday album from Johnny Mathis. Since it was recorded during the '80s, the production techniques aren't as warm and inviting as his classic '50s and '60s recordings; it isn't quite as endearing, even if his voice has lost very little of its famous smooth suppleness. For dedicated fans, it's worth hearing, but only after they've exhausted his Christmas records from the '50s, '60s, and '70s.
