Matt Monro Forum

Finally a mention on Michael Ball .Sue Perkins standing in ON DAYS LIKE THESE

Yes Sandra we thought the same as you.

We actually listened to the broadcast on Radio 2 catch up at lunchtime today.

I have just listened to the first few songs. Did anyone notice the early glaring mistake by Don ? ........(how much does Don really know about Matt's career) !! ........because he said he wrote Matts first ever top 10 hit in the UK then played Walk Away from 1964.............but Matt obviously had top 10 hits in the UK before then as Portrait of My Love reached number 3 and My Kind of Girl reached number 5 both in 1960 ...........................

Clare Teal played Put On A Happy Face advertising the playlist and Matts 90th birthday.

I heard that she is leaving her show? That will be the end of any jazz/big band/ good balladeers on Radio 2?

Im glad he was mentioned and songs played I didn't hear them but so glad he was on.
Iv'e got to listen to the playlist yet got it recorded.
