To hear Matt sing these all time classics is a joy to my ears.
The wonderful arrangements, the lyrics, and the crystal clear diction of Matt's warm soul moving voice will last forever, and give countless hours of pleasure for generations to come.

This is a must CD collection for all Matt's fans.

I have been a Matt fan for a few years now ever since I saw him live in the early 80s with the Syd Lawrence Orchestra. I have been collecting his many recordings and although this box set has quite a few duplications nevertheless it has some real gems never been heard before aswell as a well written booklet - so for me well worth the cost. Just one problem the copy I have has a printing error and therefore the booklet is slightly incomplete - This has been confirmed by EMI who say it will be corrected with the next batch.

This title is concise in describing the richness of this man's voice and delivery. Here we have 100 tracks over 4CDs. The representation covers standards 'Strangers In The Night', 'For Once In My Life', 'Love Is A Many Splendoured Thing', 'When Joanna Loved Me'. He also rides comfortably over the contemporary songs 'Yesterday', 'Michelle', 'He A'int Heavy He's My Brother'.
The impressive feature of Matt Monro is not only his vocal smoothness, but his head-on ability to tackle and dominate any composition with authority. The musical arrangements are sometimes not sympathetic but Matt glides and skates over and aboard them. He is a world-class singer up there with the best. His life was tragically short. Comparisons with Sinatra, Bennett, Nat Cole, etc are inevitable but he is in there with them. Marvellous and a great memory. A whole experience in a long life of enjoyment. Brilliant and great quality value at a ridiculous price. Can't say more without emotion.

New to Monro? You'll want more after this.
Wasn't sure about purchasing this item as I was not familiar with much of Monroe's work. Having listened to it, I can recomend this collection. Read more
