Matt Monroe

Someone called Sinatra(who?) said he was quite good, I think.

Re: Matt Monroe

We have a TV ad in Sweden with a background song that starts with the words ”More than the greatest love the world has known”. I googled it and found out to my surprise that it was sung by Matt Monro. What a beautiful voice.

Not bad for a London bus driver.
The guy was a marvel.

Re: Matt Monroe

I grew up listening to the likes of Matt Monro and Solomon King who I always thought sounded a bit similar.

Soloman King was a very good singer I loved "She Wears My Ring".
John Rowles was another in that class "If I Only Had Time"
Lou Rawls..."You'll Never Find".

But I do believe Matt Monro was a step up compared to those
