Matt Monro Forum

I have been talking to Alex Lewczuk on Siren 107.3FM for over a year now and amazingly the station asked me to stay on for the near future which is brilliant. The show runs from 5.00-7.00pm and I have been popping up at about 5.55pm, just after the news. Please note this is NOT a repeat of any other broadcasts I have done with Alex for Southside Broadcasting.

This is a regular 5.55pm feature on ‘The Midweek Drive’ each Wednesday featuring a Matt Monro track with an introduction by myself. The shows are streamed as well as going out on 107.3fm in Lincoln.

This week Richard Moore is also joining the show at approximately 5.15pm so it is definitely worth tuning in to.

Apologies for missing the very beginning of Michele - she was on a little earlier than expected! I will replace once Siren issue their podcast.

Yes we missed the beginning too Richard but what exciting news from the part that we did hear!
3 perfect tracks found in the BBC vaults of songs that Michele never knew that Matt had recorded

And Richard your interview was fascinating too.Over our heads but fascinating just the same
I hope that plenty of media type students from the university were listening to your expertise.
I just LOVE hearing Matt singing those early standards. To hear him singing as Terry Parsons
''All Of Me' from 1953-just brilliant.Thankyou

Thank you for that. All of Me is from the special reserve CD. Although the version on Siren was a brand new restoration using newer software - not a major improvement but.....

Yes those BBC tracks are really something and if you like standards..... Well we're keeping what they are under wraps but you will know two of the songs really well - But never by Matt!
