Karl, if I remember Moira plays more a bluesy/jazzy style songs compared to Don who plays traditional crooner songs and music :wink:

I'm not happy with the tracks she plays I don't really listen to the show I only listened then because Matt's name was down in the Radio Times for the show,I look in the RT and if his name there I just catch it up on the i player.
He's going to be on this Sundays show but I'll catch up later just for his song Iv'e heard him three times on her show when Iv'e seen his name in RT don't know if she's played him any other time.

Moira played Matt's beautiful version of Georgia On My Mind and said what a singer and what a song, it was her very last track
last Sunday.

At least Moira acknowledges Matt but it will be good to see Don and his music back :D

In his first programme of the present series Don played "matchless" Matt singing the awesome My Love and Devotion :) :) ............but Dons exaggerations continue saying Matt played to 60,000 fans at the Araneta Stadium when it was about 27,000 each night :wink:
