With an emphasis on classic "Tonight Show" moments, McMahon's recollections will bring back warm
memories for viewers."AudioFile
Here's Johnny! is like sitting with Ed and Johnny over lunch.
Brilliant in front of the camera but shy in person, Johnny Carson seldom gave interviews. But no one knew
him better than Ed McMahon, Carson's personal friend and showbiz sidekick for almost forty years. Now,
with Johnny's blessings before he died, McMahon can finally share all the stories that only he knows. From
the sofa at Johnny's right, to backstage, to their personal relationship, McMahon provides a real picture of
the man who so carefully censored his public image, revealing the caring person within the dynamic star.
