All About Love is an album by American pop singer Johnny Mathis that was released on May 7, 1996,[1] by Columbia Records and pairs him with producer Phil Ramone for his first venture into contemporary material since 1985's Right from the Heart. The two albums share the fact that they do not include covers of songs associated with other artists, which makes them unique entries in the Mathis catalog.
The album reached number 119 during its one week on the Billboard 200 album chart in the issue of the magazine dated May 25 of that year.[5]
Reception
[edit]Mathis's new offering earned the approval of Billboard magazine: "From the layered string sounds of 'I Will Walk Away' to the intimacy of 'Why Goodbye' to the catchy chorus of 'Every Beat of My Heart,' Mathis soothes with his trademark silky tenor."[4]
