Yes Radio 2 the only station I listen to!

We're Gonna Change The World on Steve Wright today''great lyrics''

Portrait Of My Love currently playing on Radio 2

Listening to Don Black being interviewed on Clare Baldings Sunday morning programme.Lots of praise for Matt at the beginning

On Sounds Of The Sixties this morning Matt with " Softly As I Leave You" in tribute to George Martin in Brian's three in a row spot, just lovely.

So pleased to hear someone acknowledge the part that Sir George Martin played in Matts career Christine.Thankyou Brian Matthew

I suppose Sir George worked with so many top stars over the years one or two will be forgotten when tributes are being mentioned...........but The Beatles do come to mind straight away when Sir George's name is mentioned as they are soooo famous.............Dame Shirley Bassey got her first mention today as working with Sir George after his funeral service..............but if Matt was American ala Frank Sinatra he would get a mention all the time

Yes Sandra it is good that someone acknowledge's Matt with Sir George he often gets left out
with lot's of things, thank's Brian.

Now playing ON DAYS LIKE THESE on Steve Wrights Sunday Love Songs

Chris Evans 'top tenuous' on his show this morning re 50's stars that you met.Number 2 from someone ''My Dad was a bus conductor in the 50's and the driver was Matt Monro''
