The title track starts the album on the contemporary end of the spectrum of material covered here, but Mathis also includes a standard from the 1940s ("The More I See You"), a hit that charted twice for the same artist in the 1950s ("Morning Side of the Mountain"), a trio of songs from Doctor Dolittle ("At the Crossroads", "When I Look in Your Eyes", and "Where Are the Words"), and two songs that had lyrics added after originating as instrumentals: "Drifting" began as part of the score to the 1958 film Auntie Mame, and "Far Above Cayuga's Waters" was "a theme song of Cornell University before saxophonist Dave Pell retooled it and Sammy Cahn adapted the delightful fairytale-like lyrics."[5] One song from the album, "Misty Roses", spent two weeks at number 40 on Billboard magazine's list of the 40 most popular Easy Listening songs in the US in September of that year.[6] The album made its first appearance on their Top LP's chart in the issue dated December 23 of that year to begin a 20-week stay, during which time it got as high as number 60,[7] and began four weeks on their Best Selling Rhythm & Blues LP's chart in the following issue, dated December 30, which included a peak position at number 19.[8] Up, Up And Away was released for the first time on compact disc in 2009 as one of two albums on one CD, the second of the two being its 1968 follow-up, Love Is Blue.[9]ReceptionBillboard was enthusiastic in its description of the album. "Johnny Mathis's return to the Columbia label purrs with the rich, romantic tones that suspend the very sensation of conscious listening."[4] A few tracks in particular stood out for them. "'Up, Up and Away', 'Misty Roses', and 'I Won't Cry Anymore' are soothed and coated with Mathis's seamless style – music running together like prefabricated daydreams padded with a feeling of luxury.[4]Track listingSide one
