Matt & Carlos Greco

Want to ask Richard Moore something - go for it! He is a veritable walking encyclopedia and is never happier than talking music.

Matt & Carlos Greco

Post by maureen & harry » Mon Mar 14, 2011 4:30 pm

Just out of interest - in the Special Reserve Book you said that several recordings were used as the basis for duets with Carlos. We have got five tracks of Matt & Carlos duet and wonder if you have any information as to how many tracks were issued.

Many thanks.

As far as i'm aware 5 is all there is.

SEI - who made Matt's last spanish recordings never mad their money back on the recordings - a massive orchestra recording across 2 continents etc etc.

There were plans that once space could be found in Matt's Diary that he would tour South America to promote the album - even though this would be a couple of years after the release. This for obvious reasons never happened.

SEI have all of the original 24 track master tapes and created the postumous duets with Carlos Grecco in an attempt to recoup some lost revinue.

All tracks are featured on this Itunes release

Thank you Richard for the information about Matt and Carlos Greco. It was interesting to know the background to these tracks.
