Matt Monro Forum

Nice pic of Matt autographed on sale for £20

I bought a similar one a couple of years ago (same photo) ....... which used to be hung up in the bar area of a recording studio in London.......the studio is no longer there.

Was it Morgan's studio Robert?

Matt never recorded at Morgan's so I don't know why they would have a photo of him there. More likely to be Olympic in Barnes which closed a few years back (now and entertainment & cinema complex) or CTS (The Music Centre) in Wembley also gone demolished in the stadium redevelopment. The other main Studios Matt used were Abbey Road (obviously) and Air Studios which is no longer in Oxford Street but in a converted Church in Lyndhurst Gardens.

Vary few of the 1960's/70's studio are still around. Lansdown has been coverted into a house (And was featured on Grand Designs being pulled to pieces!). Trident went about 15 years ago and Decca, Phillips & IBC have been gone for twenty or more years.

I think it was near Wembley, so it must be the one Richard mentioned
