The Second Disc gives us another mention
Posted: Thu Dec 29, 2011 11:19 pm
You may remember that the Second Disc gave the Bookazine a wonderful write up earlier in the year and once again they have been good enough to make mention of dad. This time the header was "Re-issues of the Year".
"Across the pond, EMI celebrated another venerated artist with The Singer’s Singer <http://theseconddisc.com/2011/08/30/fro ... -from-emi/> , feting the late, great Matt Monro <http://theseconddisc.com/2011/10/12/rev ... the-voice/> . Monro’s daughter Michele teamed with remastering engineer Richard Moore to reissue the 2011 4-CD box set of the same name, but with a difference: sound quality was meticulously addressed, with the set’s contents completely remastered and upgraded. Two tracks released in error in 2001 were even replaced with the correct originals, and best of all, this loving retrospective was priced at less than 10 GBP! There was no better bargain in 2011, and we’re already looking forward to the Monro estate’s plans for 2012!"
