June News

Post by Marian » Fri Jun 01, 2012 8:24 am

Thank you for the news for June, Richard. You're doing a great job in holding the fort while Michele is away. :D

I just wondered what is the full title for the Rarer Monro, so we can look out for it. Is it just The Rarer Monro or Matt Uncovered, or both?

it's both - "Matt Uncovered - The Rarer Monro" but some store may just list it as

It was felt that calling it just The Rarer Monro was too similar The Rare Monro, so it has becaome it's subtitle. We also hated the idea of calling it Volume 2!

Thanks Richard for the June news--it was fascinating to read how "The Rarer Monro" was put together--I cannot imagine the amount of work that you amd Michele put into these recordings.

And what a fabulous review of Michele's book-she must be delighted with that.

It is incredible how quickly Michele's world cruise has gone.

Thanks for the latest news Richard. We can imagine what a great time Michele will be having with Marion, recalling all those memories of her Dad and Johnnie, and hopefully her visit to the Capitol Studio will be worthwhile for her.
We have heard of the Spago Restaurant from Al Martino's daughter, and everyone who is everyone goes there.
Great news of the Cd. :) :)

Thanks - Richard for your recent contact, very helpful.
Marion - Many Thanks also for your message, I have grown up with ear problems, believe me I do not wish this on anyone else, but I always think that there are people worse than me ?

I am certainly looking forward to my trip, I was on the INDEPENDENCE last November, so I know the Cruise itineries well, and I also feel safe on board, met so many nice people.
This time, should see Michele ?

The person who gave "The Singers Singer" a great review also gave The Ultimate Collection a review which can be viewed by clicking the link on the "news" page................here is a snippet from that review

"And then there's his cover of the equally famous title song from Sean Connery's second James Bond flick, 'From Russia With Love.' Monro belts this piece with every bit of his being. It could be argued that his version is actually better than the original written and performed by Lionel Bart for the movie" :roll: :roll: :!: :!:

I Can't Help But Cry, But I Must Go On" :(
