The......ask a Matt Monro question......game

Post by ROBERT M. » Tue Jan 04, 2011 1:19 am

I thought of this game while watching Mastermind tonight. I was thinking what my specialist subject would be, maybe Matt Monro :) ..............................Just answer a question on Matt Monro then reply with your own question on Matt Monro :) ...............one question at a time.............any subject regarding Matt will do just fine..............personal details, Matts family, album tracks, Matts singles, lyrics from songs, muscial directors, gigs................virtually any Matt subject under the sun you can think of :) (you never know, we might all learn something new during the game) :)

Question. What was Matts birth name ?
"My Tears Will Fall Now That You're Gone,
I Can't Help But Cry, But I Must Go On" :(
