What's In Your CD Player/iPod/MP3/Computer/Hi Fi, Right Now?

[john]

Listening to Jimmy Roselli singing "When Your Old Wedding Ring Was New" now. Another great singer.

[Lena & Harry Smith]

Listening to a past Frankie Laine interview with Eric Hall and singing "I Believe"

[john]

Listening to Don Cornell singing "The Bible Tells Me So".

[Sandra]

Listening to my finally arrived CD of Johnny Mathis called Heavenly.
My favourite track at the minute is 'Moonlight Becomes You'(Do we have another match Mariana?)

[mariana44]

To be honest Sandra, it is such a great cd, I love all the tracks--I guess my favourites are "Hello Young lovers" "That's all" and also"I'll be easy to find"---which I have never heard anyone else sing before.

"Moonlight becomes you" as a song is not my favouite, but if anyone could make me like it JM could--especially as he sings the verse, which again is quite rare.

I am so glad that you have got it, after all this time. Your collection is not complete without it.

[Lena & Harry Smith]

You've got me playing it now, and "Moonlight Becomes You " is one of my all time favourite songs, and "That's All is a great song and "Ride A Rainbow is a much rarer nunmber.

[john]

I know that Jerry Vale's version of "Moonlight Becomes You" is one of your favourites of Jerry's, Lena.

[paul jh]

I love that Johnny Mathis medley that includes Moonlight Becomes You. (Thanks Marian ).

I also love the recording by Bing Crosby. Have you heard it Lena?

[Lena & Harry Smith]

Yes, I love the song, Jerry Vales in particular, but I do love Bing Crosby's version too, in fact Bing's recording was the first and I'm sure the only recording that I remembered and associated with that song for a long, long time.
What I do particularly remember is that the Two crooners predominantly and favourably in many peoples minds here from the Forties were Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra,... and in that order.

[mariana44]

I think, that although they came from the same era, Bing and Frank were both very different singers---completely different, instantly recognisable voices--their own style--and both completely unique.

[jon]

My favourite songs from JM's Heavenly album are Something I Dreamed Last Night, followed by This is A Lovely Way to Spend An Evening.

[ROBERT M.]

Listening to the Very Best of Matt Monro (formerly released as the Very Best of the EMI Years) ................which includes some rareish songs Jeannie (wonderful) .............and April Fool and Here and Now

[Sandra]

We agree Robert.Jeannie is a beautiful song.
In fact Chris Dean of the Syd Lawrence Orchestra now includes it in his repertoire of songs he sings when paying tribute to the great voice and songs of Matt.

[john]

Listening to Matt singing "I'll Dream Of You".

[john]

Listening to Al Martino singing "What Now My Love".
