Matt Monro Forum

I just discovered a Portugues/Chinese singer named Michael Remedios who is in his late 60s
Please check out the "Matt Monro Medley" on "You Tube" where he sings with Larry Lo.....
Mike's voice is very good and one of the better imitators of Matt Monro for his age.....Check him out!

I found it, it was ok but I wasn't as impressed as I was with Gary Grace - he is fantastic!

Here it is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYzcnF8M8Tg

Well, I must confess I enjoyed and felt quite emotional watching Michael Remedios with Larry Lo. This wasn't just another soundalike, there have been quite a few who have tried it and without success, but the warmth, sincerity, and regard for Matt and his songs was so evident.
Thanks for the link Robert.

How lovely and I agree Lena and Harry very moving! He should go to Tenerife in June (our holiday ) he's amazing ... Thank you for the link Robert and hpooch ....

What can I say but awesome.. Thanks for the recomendation Henry and the link Robert!!

We agree- a nice listen

Yes, that's it, and It didn't matter that they didn't have the best voices in the world. It was what they put in to the performance that was so impressive.
They didn't just dump the flowers down they were presented with either did they like some do, but sang the last song still holding them

Yes L&H, they put emotion into the songs

I agree with all of you, and I was lucky to run across their live concert excerpt....Quite a Treat!!

Karl, You thought Gary Grace did a better vocal than Michael....but I beg to differ.......
We each have our own opinion, But Gary does a better Sinatra than Matt....
Check out Michael Remedios singing "Let Me Try Again" or "Portrait of My Love"
(Robert can check out the address on "You Tube" to post on the forum)

I can't find those Henry

But I found this, but he's not in Matts class.......by a mile ............http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ww73fz7yatQ
