Matt Monro Forum

hi everybody from downunder. Chris & I were absolutely stoked to realise that Michele had allocated our own section [I was going to say box, but at my age I try to avoid that word!] in the web site. In the November news we hope to tell you how the society emerged, our achievements to date, & what we...

I would like to make a public "Thank you" on behalf of Chris & myself, to the kind words from Michele in the August "NE...

Hi Laura, I was lucky enough to get the great man's autograph on a vinyl cover when I spent a wee bit of time with him on his visit to Australia in the early 80's. Naturally it;s one of mymost treasured possessions, but I'm happy to post to you a scaled down coloured copy of the cover of "All my Lov...

yes we've noticed how hot it is across USA. My son who is a pro tennis coach in Vegas, tells me he drags himself off the courts at night,drained! It's a funny tho hpooch, when we were there last, he warned us of the high temps. However, coming from the Aussie steamy heat , & stepping out into the dr...

G'day all. Grant , I echo all that Marian said, welcome. My mate & I have enjoyed Matt's wonderful company & music for many, many years. In fact Chris, my mate used to "jam" with Terry when they were both your age. It is certainly wonderful how Michele & her brother, by their efforts have recreated ...

Hi from downunder. Fear not Hagrid. Being a little out range, I too was prompted by Michele to put in a plea for a copy to be sent . The response from the forum was overwhelming. I grabbed the first generous offer, & it's now on it's way south! Matt's extended family are certainly a great bunch!! My...

Hi members, a plaintive cry for help from downunder. Another showing of 'the man with the golden voice" is apparently imminent on your TV2 I believe. Naturally it won't reach kangarooland direct, and there are a few fans here who love to view it. I s there anyone out there who would be able to tape ...

My mate Chris, who lives near me on the Aussie Gold Coast,used to jam with "bowey" Parsons from Tuffnell Pk, after they were both demobbed. This was at the Boston Pk pub....

Many thanks Lena & Harry for filling in my memory gaps. I'm sorry for repeating the same question, but overlooked turning the page! I hope recall for you all some stories of Matt & pre Matt , soon. Meanwhile forget England for the World Soccer Cup, just keep an eye on those underdogs Australia!! Goo...

Hi Matt fans. Your comments on the ESC were very interesting. However at the back of my mind I seem to remember a song called "Cruising down the river" being one of UK's first submission. Any reaction? Hope that you all enjoy the forthcoming getogether & bunfight! Wish we could be there also. Happy ...

Hi all All your comments are very interesting In the back of my mind I seem to recall that one of the UK's first entries if not the first was an entry CRUISING DOWN THE RIVER is my mind playing tricks on me? Cyril from downunder
