"The Invisible Tears lp from the Johnny Mann Singers is one of my all-time favorite lp's. It has great sentimental value and I'm so GLAD that finally someone--the great Taragon-- has had the class to put this one out on CD, with an extra Johnny Mann Singers lp to boot!! With the abysmal [stuff] that now is called music nowadays, let's support the companies that are offering wonderful old recordings on CD. This CD's time has finally come!! One of the greatest in choice of selections AND harmonies etc.... thanks TARAGON! (And now how about a great complete BOX SET from the Johnny Mann Singers??)"

GOOD MUSIC LIVES!

"I am purchasing this CD as soon as possible, as I have not been able to find any re-issued material from the Johnny Mann Singers until now.



All the albums by the Johnny Mann Singers always featured an excellent choice of material, great arrangements and harmonies, and were a staple of programming at "Good Music"/"Easy Listening" stations, which are few and far between these days.



Kudos to the folks at Tarragon for re-mastering and re-releasing great music of the past such as Johnny Mann Singers, Bert Kaempfert and others.



If you like your music on the easy side, without it being from the Elevator Genre, then get this CD..you won't regret it!."

At LAST!!

"Like countless thousands of other true "music lovers," all I could say when I first spotted this CD was a resounding, "At LAST!!" I am one of the most loyal Ray Conniff fans in existence, but can I still be a lover of Johnny Mann's offerings to the world of great music? You bet your music-loving life I can, and so can you! This "two-fer" CD features some of the best selections Johnny Mann ever produced, and like you who sample this CD, I cannot wait for other collections to come out. His treatments of many songs that were successfully interpreted and produced by Conniff and the Ray Charles Singers still feature Johnny Mann's special individuality, and such songs as "People," "Al-Di-La, "Love Me with All Your Heart," and "Shangri-La" are special indeed. But the best are "Blue Velvet," "Portrait of My Love," and "The World I Used to Know," which are songs that passed "special" at a sprint, and which I am certain you will enjoy immensely."
