Matt Uncovered: The Rarer Monro - Date Set

Five years in the making it delivers exactly what it says on the cover. Stored in the vaults of EMI and the BBC for more than four decades this sees 50 + wonderful new tracks as well as a smattering of unearthed jingles that Matt recorded for some of the most prestigious products of the day.

There are loads of other Matt tracks on Youtube "for critical review". It is annoying for everyone who worked on the CD, when it is only just released. Also annoying he got his CD before us.

Sorry, Karl-- I knew that you had not thought Michele had uploaded those tracks-I just wondered if anyone recognised the name.

Can you believe it. After all the hard graft and research and extended time and effort that it's taken to release this album, and the eagerness and anticipation that we have been experiencing, particularly to hear songs from Matt that we didn't know existed, some moron ( and that's being polite )has to make a name for himself.. :evil:

Marian(a) my reply was actually for the other Marian (it's so confusing isn't it?).

Isn't it typical that nobody (except Jimmy Jackson) had his copy on time, with other new releases I have received mine at the weekend prior to the release on the Monday!

Amazon U.S. has changed its page on Matt Monro Rarer to "unavailable", no longer showing the advance sale information.

But the price has gone up since I ordered it (now $15+) (even though not currently available) on Amazon U.S. But there are other vendor on Amazon selling it new, cheaper.

I wonder how many copies were sold out in advance on Amazon U.S.
