Synopsis

Product Description
Johnny s warm, mellifluous interpretations on these two 1969 albums will make you hear these songs in a whole new way, even if you ve heard them hundreds of times. A good example is his dramatically slowed-down reading of 'Sunny'; the contemplative, even wistful tone of his performance really gives the 'dark days' of the song s lyrics equal weight to the bright ones, an insight usually lost in the song s breezier interpretations.
 

CD Reviews

The finest singer of the 20th Century
C. Weigel | 01/31/2010
(5 out of 5 stars)

"From the first day I heard Johnny's "Wonderful Wonderful" I was hooked on his wonderful voice. There is no one who can sing a song and make it his OWN like JM. I had all his LP's and needed to replace them all with CDs. This was one of them. A great group of songs by an inimitable singer."
