From the CD Album "Johnny Mathis, The Ultimate Hits Collection", Music & Lyrics By Sherman Edwards, Ben Raleigh

An another 1959 LP that Johnny Mathis did in his earlier career as a singer. This is his second release of Johnny's greatest hits. His voice is really at his best for the one of the two songs that I picked in that album.

Johnny Mathis sings "I Believe In Love" at 1988 United States concert.

First of the shorter range videos for contemporary singers on my channel. This type of format won't suit every singer so this won't be a common occurence. I thought of doing a full vocal range for Johnny but due to the breadth of his discography (over seventy albums, not counting live stuff) I thought this would be more fitting. I mean, after all, I don't wanna make a 4 hour long video lmaoo.

Regarding his voice, he is a wonderful trained tenor with a development across all registers (except his head voice - it is a bit underdeveloped and underused). He rarely sang past the B-flat 4 but he had a solid C5 which he demonstrated a few times. And yes, that A5 is him.

(Nina Simone cover)

"Mathis suffuses with a selflessness one imagines the composers had in mind when conceiving Jean Valjean's aching prayer" -- Liner notes from "Mathis on Broadway", 2000, Jay Landers and Richard Jay-Alexander, regarding the beautiful, soulful song, "Bring Him Home" from Les Misérables (composers Claude-Michel Schönberg, Alain Boublil and Herbert Kretzmer). Somehow I missed including this earlier on as one of my many favorites from this incredible CD. Listening to this is (as written in the notes) like taking a front row seat as "the legendary Johnny Mathis takes center stage on Broadway." It's hard to improve on these wonderful notes- so I won't try... take a listen: "An artist whose voice is his own finely tuned instrument...a songwriter's dream singer...experience a great artist - who is also a genuine and caring individual.. give life to these marvelous creations. As expected, he's indelibly stamped them his own." .... "Curtain up!" Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy.

Johnny Mathis With Herb Alpert’s Tijuana Brass . September 11 .1965 . Hollywood Bowl . Audio Only . Johnny Mathis - 00.00 - 21.30 - Minutes - Johnny Mathis - 1hr 20 Minutes - 2hr 28 Minutes.
Johnny Mathis was one of those artists who transitioned over from Jazz/Pop to traditional Pop and ballads, including a lot of showtunes and standards, making a household name for himself and becoming an icon because of it.

Mathis had broad appeal and was featured prominently on Late Night TV (Johnny Carson), numerous variety programs of the time and would continue to ring up handsome figures in album sales well into the 80s and 90s.

So as much as you’d like to think the world abruptly changed in the direction of John, Paul, George and Ringo, there was still a substantial fan base for someone of Johnny Mathis’ appeal and unique talents.

This concert, which also features Herb Alpert’s Tijuana Brass, was hosted by the Stereo Store in the San Fernando Valley, House Of Sight And Sound and was emceed by the KMPC disc jockeys.

Bear in mind, this concert is fifty-three years old and was presented at a time when Traditional Pop still had popularity with the Top-40 crowd as was evidenced by Herb Alpert’s Tijuana Brass, which was enjoying top-10 status with most Rock Stations around the country in 1965.

The other thing – which is something you definitely would not find now is the humor of Bill Dana, who introduces The Tijuana Brass. Dana, who was a popular comedian as well as writer, established a career for himself in the character of José Jimenez, a somewhat stereotyped Bolivian who was very popular in the late 1950s/early 1960s, but who would be considered today as downright offensive. Times change – and so does music.

Here’s a reminder that The Hollywood Bowl was a showcase for a wide spectrum of Artists throughout the years – and this was what Pop Music was about in the early 1960s.

Another song, done to perfection by Johnny Mathis that I really love. Makes me want to go to Paris, so I hope I take you there in this video too.

You can purchase this wonderful song in the boxed set, "The Music Of Johnny Mathis, a personal collection."

Original album: "Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head," 1970.

This beautiful song and movie have been a part of my life since I was a child. The original movie version was also beautifully sung by Vic Damone. I really wanted to put together my favorite movie of all time with my favorite singer of all time and so I did. I really can't say that I made this video. The photos "made" the video from the movie and all are from the original 1957 film. I added very little to them.

I own about four copies of this film. I must have seen it over two hundred times since it came out and I watch it at least once a year at Christmas time. It never fails to bring tears to my eyes. It is one of the best films ever made. I highly recommend the movie which can be purchased/rented online and, of course, the song, as sung by Johnny Mathis here, from his original Mercury recordings, now re-mastered and on CD from the album, "Love Is Everything."

When by granddaughter watched this movie, at age 16, she said at the end, tears streaming down her face, "This is such a beautiful love story and you never even saw them kiss." And, she was right.

Orig. 12-inch DISCO-Version, 1979. BEST VERSION OF ALL TIME! .HERE COMES THE LYRICS:

When they begin the beguine
It brings back the sound of music so tender
It brings back a night of tropical splendor
It brings back a memory ever green

I'm with you once more under the stars
And down by the shore an orchestra's playing
And even the palms seem to be swaying
When they begin the beguine

To live it again is past all endeavor
Except when that tune clutches my heart
And there we are, swearing to love forever
And promising never, never to part

What moments divine, what rapture serene
Till clouds came along to disperse the joys we had tasted
And now when I hear people curse the chance that was wasted
I know but too well what they mean

So don't let them begin the beguine
Let the love that was once a fire remain an ember
Let it sleep like the dead desire I only remember
When they begin the beguine

Let them begin the beguine, make them play
Till the stars that were there before return above you
Till you whisper to me once more, darling, I love you
And we suddenly know what heaven we're in when they begin

When they begin the beguine
When they begin the beguine
When they begin the beguine

The process of making a brick wall is a commonly used construction technique to divide spaces or build structures in a house or building. Below are the basic steps of the process:

Planning and Preparation: The first step is to plan the project and prepare the ground, removing any obstacles and leveling the soil.

Wall Design: The wall design is drawn on the ground and a string is placed to define the limits of the wall.

Foundation: The foundation is prepared by digging a trench in the soil and pouring a concrete base at the bottom.

Brick Placement: A layer of mortar is applied to the foundation and the bricks are placed following the wall design, making sure they are level and in a straight line. It is important to alternate the direction of the bricks to provide greater stability.

Brick Bonding: Mortar is used to bond the bricks, pressing each one against the previous layer and making sure they are firmly attached.

Brick Cutting: If necessary, the bricks are cut to adjust their size and ensure that the wall is uniform.

Finishing: Once all the bricks have been placed, the mortar is allowed to dry and the final finishing is done. This can be a mortar plaster or a finish with paint or cladding.

The process of making a brick wall can vary depending on the size and design of the project, as well as the materials used. It is important to note that this technique requires skill and experience to achieve an optimal and long-lasting result.
