    I remember Matt Monro from my teenage years. What a voice. Now living in Timor-Leste, I still listen to this most talented singer. His songs are finding a new generation of fans. Peace and love from Dili.

    My late Father always sung Matt's songs, and even looked a bit like him. We were eating out

    What an absolute treat Michelle, I only got to know of this on google, and I am so glad I did, your dad is my favourite singer I wouldn't have wanted to miss it. You have done a fantastic job and after hearing this, there is no need to hear the other version. Your dad had a beautiful style all of his own, he could even bend a note, I WILL WAIT FOR YOU is a favourite, and there is no one on this planet or any other that can sing THE BIRTH OF THE BLUES like he does. Thank you for such an excellent programme, your father would be extremely proud of you.

    As an Australian, I latched on to Matt in the late 70s/early 80s when everyone else my age was listening to AC/DC and Cold Chisel...they were all like ‘who’s Matt Monro?’ It’s wonderful to see all of this information and material coming out about Matt (with the chrystal clear and clean voice)❤️

    Beautiful production Michele. As a lifelong fan with Matt (and Perry Como) as my idol(s), was a treat to view this first episode. I am still singing Matt's songs and virtues at 68 years young and can't wait for episode 2!

    Thank you for this Michelle, your dad, Matt Monro remains, for me, the greatest Singer this country has ever produced. There are few true musical legends but Matt Monro is certainly numbered among them. For me he was the greatest of them all.
