Christmas Eve with Johnny Mathis
''Christmas Eve with Johnny Mathis'' is a Christmas album by American pop singer Johnny Mathis that was released in September 1986 by Columbia Records.〔 The album, Mathis's fourth holiday-themed release, spent a week on ''Billboard'' magazine's Christmas Albums chart in the issue dated December 12, 1992,〔.〕 (no such chart was published in 1986)〔.〕 and two weeks on its Top Pop Catalog Albums chart in December 1994.〔
The recording of "Jingle Bells" on this release is subtitled "(Let's Take a Sleigh Ride)" on the front and back covers of the album jacket.〔 (The CD booklet does not include song titles on the cover.) The track opens with background vocalists singing, "Let's take a sleigh ride, a merry sleigh ride," and the subtitle is inserted into each refrain of the chorus. Although no credit for additional lyrics is cited, the credit for the arranger of this rendition, Ray Ellis, is listed with the songwriter's name on the LP label.〔
The album's opener, "It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas", was featured in the 1992 holiday release ''Home Alone 2: Lost in New York'' and included on its original soundtrack album.〔(1992) ''Home Alone 2: Lost in New York'' by various artists (booklet ).

==Reception==
''People'' magazine's reviewer, Ralph Novak, describes Mathis's singing on the album as "characteristically smooth, yet never very engaged", and feels that the arrangements "tend to big stringy orchestrations that are too much for intimacy and not passionate enough for majesty."〔
