It won't get pushed back again. They couldn't get things together in time for Michele's next trip home so it's got to wait until she's back later in the year.

Is Richard hiding behind the administrator title or is it someone new?

Thanks for the April newsletter Michele. So pleased that the new album has been so well received and hopefully once things get back to normal stocks will be available at all the usual outlets.

Shame on the BBC for not letting David Hamilton and other shows play Matt's new album.

We are still reading the reviews in the April News and aren't they excellent. And what about the amazing likeness of Matt on the drawing Michele received.So much hard work from Michele and Richard plus MORE to come.
Re the BBC not playing Matt our Radio Lincolnshire 'Big Band And Balladeers' with Howard Leader on a Sunday had our request for Stranger In Paradise in the first week and will always play Matt.

As you say Maureen and Harry this wonderful production will continue to sell when we are back to normal.

Thank you Richard for the April news and was sorry to hear that Michele is still not very well.

The downloading project sounds very interesting and we will look forward to more news in due course. Is there any chance in the future of a new Matt album?

We have the Matt and Nelson Riddle CD "A Touch of Class" and agree with you that the remastered audio is fabulous thanks to all your hard work. The Strike Up The Band arrangement and Matt are superb.

The You Tube is just great and so is the new site.

She's on the mend, Good days and bad days. Might be a few months before she does the news again I suspect.

Don't know about another album, Universal would like to do another, but we have to find the right project. I'm still trying to convince them of an idea, but they aren't happy about issuing anything that Matt recorded whilst he was at Parlophone or EMI.

I actually have a better version (plus an alternate take) of the audio from Nelson Riddle now which is even better. Strike up the Band on The Rarities Collection give you an idea about how much better.

Lots more to come on YouTube. Mainly BBC & ITV material at the moment (some of which hasn't been issued before), But I'm hoping Aviator can get the rights to some things we've been trying to licence for years. Fingers crossed.

Thanks Richard for the April update.

It was a nice promotion article for Michele's book in the Sunday Times and hope everything is going well for her.

It was good news to hear that you got the all clear at long last for Matt's albums and hope we are able to download them on Friday.
