''The Rhythms and Ballads of Broadway'' is the twelfth album released by Johnny Mathis. It is the tenth original studio album recorded by the singer (two compilations, ''Johnny's Greatest Hits'' and ''More Johnny's Greatest Hits'', were among his album releases to this point). Originally released in 1960 as a two-LP set, it was also released as two single LP's as ''The Rhythms of Broadway'' and ''The Ballads of Broadway'' respectively. ==Overview== While the earlier Mathis albums had mostly been recorded under the musical direction of Percy Faith, for this album that function was handled by Glenn Osser for the ballads record and by Ralph Burns for the uptempo record. While the ballads follow the pattern of his previous performances being touched with typical Mathis elegance and restraint, the uptempo numbers find Mathis in a very loose and uninhibited state which may surprise those only familiar with his later work. Indeed, on the upbeat songs he at times seems to channeling one of his musical heroes, Lena Horne, emulating her exaggerated enunication and throwing in a number of Horne's guttural growls for effect. While exciting in their way, these performances owe more to Horne than Mathis and he is more effective on uptempo material on other albums such as 1958's ''Swing Softly'' and 1962's ''Live It Up!''
