Hi all. Just as a precursor to a post on 'Rare', I was telling Michele that I first picked up at Matt Monro CD in a bargain bin in Sydney for $5. As a Sinatra fan, I knew most of the songs but the only one I knew of Matt's was Born Free. That was 1998 when I was 26 and now I'm a huge fan...I still have that first CD, all scratched and everything, but it still plays away grand. Best $5 ever spent. As regards 'Rare', what a fantastic album. The songs are just class and for me the stand-out track is 'Only Friends'. Every time it comes on, I have to replay it a few times. As for the excitement when I came across the DVD of the newly discovered live performance in Australia...I only hope that some more footage is either found or re-released. He played in my native Cork City (Ireland) once I believe, but that was before my time! Anyhow, keep the music playing.
