Matt Monro Forum

Bobby Crush appeared on Breakfast Television this week to talk about his show that is currently touring the country. This show is titled "Live From Las Vegas" a glitzy extravaganza with Bobby taking the role of Liberace the flamboyant pianist and showman, famous for appearing on stage, his piano adorned with his famous candelabra, talking with a dry wit, and showing off his outrageous suits and dazzling jewellery.
This is the web-site for information of his tour.

There is a nice picture of Matt and Bobby together on the scrapbook area on the news piece.

Thanks for the information on Bobby Crush. I've never heard of him. I went to the website. This is definitely a show I would like. I'll have to remember to check his schedule for 2007 and one will take place in a town on my list!

Ten years ago when Las Vegas was interesting, they had a show called Legends In Concert that would feature people performing as Liberace, Sammy Davis Jnr, Elvis Presley, etc. They were just fabulous. I have no interest in Las Vegas anymore, but I'm sure these shows would just feature more recent people like Madonna, Whitney Houston, Bruce Springsteen, and Beyonce. I think you'll all agree that these can't match the showmanship and entertaining performances of Liberace and Sammy Davis Jnr.

Paul, Bobby is a wonderful pianist and was a winner on a popular weekly talent show in the Seventies Opportunity Knocks with compere Hughie Green.
Bobby has a web-site with more pictures of himself taken with various stars including the one with Matt. www.bobbycrush.com
Couldn't agree more Paul, Liberace was a great pianist and entertainer and who could ever replace the incredible versatility of Sammy Davies Jnr
Can't think of one.
