Book Synopsis
A singer once said His pitch was right on the nose: his word enunciation letter perfect: his understanding of a song thorough. He will be missed very much, not only by myself, but by his fans all over the world. The singer was the legendary Frank Sinatra, the man he spoke about: Matt Monro. 

Matt Monro: The Singer''s Singer, is the highly-anticipated story of one of Britain''s most iconic singers, tracing Matt Monro''s life from his poverty stricken upbringing in post-war Britain to his day job as London bus driver to the steady rise to fame that saw the singer battling the highs and lows of the entertainment industry to become one of Britain''s best-loved entertainers. This is the man behind the image, the man who rubbed shoulders with some of the most famous names in the business, who recorded the very first James Bond theme song (From Russia with Love) and the international hits Softly as I Leave You, Born Free, Walk Away a
