WHILE MOST PEOPLE WERE STILL ASLEEP, JOHNNY MATHIS WAS ALREADY WORKING ON SOMETHING THAT HELPED KEEP HIM PERFORMING FOR DECADES. It wasn’t a new song or another recording session. It was exercise. Johnny had been a gifted athlete long before becoming a singing sensation. And he never completely abandoned the discipline he learned on the track. In a revealing interview, he described waking around five in the morning and exercising for approximately 90 minutes. The routine helped him manage the physical wear and tear of his athletic years. He also understood that maintaining his voice required careful attention to rest, breathing, and physical condition. By his eighties, Johnny was still devoted to staying active. He didn’t credit his longevity to talent alone. There was preparation behind every beautiful note. And perhaps that is what makes his extraordinary career even more inspiring.

JOHNNY MATHIS RECORDED A SONG HE COULDN’T BEAR TO HEAR AGAIN — AND YEARS LATER, HE STILL WONDERED HOW BURT BACHARACH HAD LET HIM SING IT THAT WAY. In the 1950s, Johnny was still discovering the voice that would eventually make him famous around the world. One of his early recordings was “Warm and Tender,” a song by the legendary Burt Bacharach. But Johnny wasn’t pleased with the result. He later remembered struggling to follow Bacharach’s musical direction and feeling that his performance sounded nothing like the romantic singer he wanted to become. The irony? That recording appeared on the reverse side of “It’s Not for Me to Say,” one of his breakthrough hits. The single sold a million copies. Decades later, Johnny could laugh about the experience, recalling how badly he thought he had sung. Even legends have recordings they wish they could redo.

Introduction: Even the most celebrated singers have performances they wish they could erase. For Johnny Mathis, one early recording became a lasting…

Before Graceland, the Presleys Had Three Memphis Addresses in Less Than a Year. Elvis was thirteen when his family left Tupelo for Memphis in November 1948. Their first address was 370 Washington. By June, they were living around the corner in a rooming house at 572 Poplar Avenue. That fall, they moved again, this time into Lauderdale Courts, a public housing development. On a map, these were small moves. For the Presleys, they were the difference between spending another few months in a rooming house and finding an apartment where they would stay for more than three years. The timing matters. Elvis was still in school when the family settled at Lauderdale Courts. He wouldn’t make his first commercial record until 1954. Graceland tells us what Elvis could afford after his records sold. The addresses on Washington and Poplar tell us where his family had to start. What did Memphis give the teenager in those years, before he had a record to his name?
