Sunday 10 January 2010 - BBC Radio Essex - Eric Hall
Re: BBC Radio Essex
Just listened in to Michele and Matt Jnr on Eric Hall's programme. (I thought you were going to venture out into the snow M&M!! )
Nice interview though, when Eric would let you get a word in.. and some lovely songs of your dad played too. Enjoyed hearing the Antony Newley one for the first time.
Hope to get the Special edition of the book to hear more special tracks.

Re: BBC Radio Essex
We heard it.
Nice to hear both Michele and Matt talking of their lovely Dad, to hear Matt's songs, " Portrait," "Time After Time, "On Days Like These " and even a little preview of an unheard recording that we can't wait to hear on the forthcoming CDs, and Matt the joker on an Anthony Newley number.
If only Eric would let them talk. That's just what we said Marian, but we actually used stronger words than that t

Re: BBC Radio Essex
We heard it too.Fabulous Matt tracks but Michele and Matt weren't given the chance to actually stress a lot about the importance of the book,the CD's and anything else.
Eric Hall made us swear!!

Re: BBC Radio Essex
I thought it was also interesting to hear about Matt Jnr's new recording contract, and his new album "Dance With My Father Again."
Re: BBC Radio Essex
Just listened to the interview, really enjoyed it. I like Eric Hall, but he does tend to warble on a lot, he doesn't let anyone get a word in edgeways. Anyhow, Michele and Matt, you both did a great job.

He means well bubelahs, and it is his show, in case you didn't know after today.
He announced his show today was all about the great British singers, and then played a Jimmy Rosselli number

Re: BBC Radio Essex
We also listened to the Eric Hall interview yesterday and enjoyed it but like everyone else we thought Eric interrupted M & M too much.
We all have a lot to look forward to this year with the book and the two new CD's and also the good news about Matt Jnr's new recording contract and forthcoming tour.
It's at times like this when the internet comes into its own as we have listened to the interview again this morning on BBC iPlayer so for anyone who missed it just log on to

We know it's a bit late in the day but can we just wish everyone a very happy new year.
Cheers!

Re: BBC Radio Essex
Thanks for your New Year wishes, Maureen and Harry. we wish you both the very best too.
Eric does get a bit excited on his show, but hopefully more people now know about the forthcoming book and music than they knew before.

Re: BBC Radio Essex
PS - Eric Hall is quoted as being 64 by Wikipedia, which would tie in with him working as a tea boy with Elton John! Apparently he discovered the Sex Pistols!

Many thanks Richard for the the Michele & Matt appearance on Eric Hall's Radio Essex.
I tried to do this myself on the day of the interview and got as far as saving the interview into My Documents but when I came to play it back, Windows Media didn't recognise the file and wouldn't play it. The file had been saved with an MHTML format so I was wondering if you could tell me how to save future interviews in MP3 format or would I need special software - if so, I will wait for your postings on the forum.

Sorry Richard - just read my last post and found the deliberate mistake! It should have read that I saved the interview in My Documents.

This is ridiculous - I am typing the word documents but it's printing it as the word none.
Hope this time it reads correctly.

Evidently the 'Forum' thinks your swearing some how!
In future try spelling whatever it is with f.u.l.l.s.t.o.p.s.
There is no easy way. There are various bits of software out there to download shows, but none of them worked on this particular show. I ended up doing it the old fashioned way. I played it back in the studio an simaltaniously recorded it - nothing mega technical but not easily achived on a regular PC.
