The Complete Global Albums Collection
''The Complete Global Albums Collection'' is a 13-disc box set by American pop singer Johnny Mathis that was released in 2014 by Sony Music Entertainment and includes the 11 studio albums he recorded for Mercury Records between 1963 and 1966 as well as 31 additional tracks, 16 of which were being made available for the first time.
==History==
Mathis switched from Columbia Records to Mercury in 1963 because of three factors: more money, "plus total control over his recording activities, and the added perk of owning his own masters."〔(2012) ''Tender Is the Night/The Wonderful World of Make Believe'' by Johnny Mathis (booklet ). New York: Sony Music Entertainment RGM-0083.〕 The time of this transition was already a busy one: "During that same time I was working non-stop at different nightclubs around Manhattan... sometimes four or five performances a night at the Copacabana, The Blue Angel, Basin Street East. I was doing all this singing at night and then signed to record in the daytime. So a lot of the work I did at Mercury was done under a lot of duress."〔
Because he was used to the mentors he always had while recording at Columbia, his new position of power was a bit of a shock. "Now, all of a sudden, I was in charge of my own decisions in the studio, and I didn't have someone to guide me on what I was doing, right or wrong."〔(2014) ''The Complete Global Albums Collection'' by Johnny Mathis (booklet ). New York: Sony Music Entertainment 88843091432.〕 Although Don Costa was at the helm of his first Mercury LP, ''Sounds of Christmas'', Mathis took on the role of producer for the next several albums. "But I wasn't a producer, and I didn't really realize until then how important producers were and how much they assisted me in my work."〔 After his Mercury contract expired and he returned to Columbia, he had a much clearer sense of what he had been missing during his time away. "I needed someone to listen and suggest alternatives as far as my note selections were concerned... a producer who listens to you and says, 'I like what you're doing, but I hate that last note you made. Don't do that... do this.'"〔(2012) ''So Nice/Johnny Mathis Sings'' by Johnny Mathis (booklet ). New York: Sony Music Entertainment RGM-0108.〕 For the 48 years between his last recording session for Mercury and the release of this box set, he has stayed with Columbia.
