Matt Monro Forum

We travelled over to the Palace Theatre at Mansfield last night to see The Nick Ross Orchestra
because the guest singer was the excellent Matthew Ford.
A good night of 'Miller Magic' music made even better by the talent that is Matthew.He gets better
all the time.
BUT the icing on the cake was to hear Matts music ringing through the foyer and auditorium before the show,during the interval and after the show
A test for you John? I wrote down the first few in order of play but can't see which CD it was on!
Yesterday,Let's Face The Music And Dance,Spring Is Here,Laura,The Nearness Of You etc.

Hi Sandra, I can't see a single cd that has the tracks in that order, however all these tracks are on "Matt at the Movies", so could be on this set and perhaps they were played them on random.

Sounds like you had a great evening Sandra and John, and what a bonus to hear Matt's songs over the air too.
We wondered if you had seen Tommy Steele talking of Scrooge on Alan Titchmarsh's show this afternoon He looked and sounded great.

A lovely evening, Sandra and John!

Well Lena and Harry I THOUGHT I had recorded it but hadn't,so will watch it on iplayer
and thanks Marian- it was worth the journey

I saw the Nick Ross band a couple of years ago in London, had a great evening even managed to get a CD signed! Sandra you're right Matthew Ford is brilliant! He needs to make more albums!

I remember Nick Ross before he formed the band.............he used to present Crimewatch didn't he

Josh, Matt Ford has a new CD out now called PORTRAIT not with a big band though,just a quartet.
It is pretty good though

We are just watching the 2011 proms again with Matt Ford and Clare Teal.
Wonderful stuff. !!!

I watched it too L&H ...............the John Wilson orchestra played some musical numbers that don't alway's get that much "air time"
