MATT MONRO - OS GRANDES SUCESSOS DOS BEATLES (2021)

In this post, I present an unofficial compilation of five Beatles songs, which were performed by English singer Matt Monro.

His real name was Terrence Edward Parson. He was born in London on December 1, 1930 and died in February 1985. He became internationally known for performing one of the songs in the James Bond film 007-From Russia With Love.

With a style recognized in the wake of singers such as Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennet and Andy Williams, Monro had his main hits during the 1960s, mainly in Great Britain. In addition to the 007 theme song, Monro's other big hit was the song Walk away.

Matt Monro began his musical career in the 1950s, singing in television advertisements and with some British orchestras (such as the Cyril Stapleton Orchestra). After a few recordings, he signed to Decca Records to record an album of standards, entitled "Blue And Sentimental" (1957).

In 1965, he was the first singer to perform a Beatles song, Yesterday. He later left for the United States performing at nightclubs and recording sporadically during the 1970s.

In 1980, his album "Heartbreakers" put him back on the music scene, but his health began to deteriorate, due to cancer, and he died five years later.

The compilation of this post features five Beatles songs, listed below:

01. All my loving;
02. Here, There And Everywhere;
03. Yesterday;
04. Michelle;
05. Isn't a Pity.

THE MAGIC SOUND OF DEEP - PRESENTS THE BEATLES MEGAMIX (1996) REPOST

 Certainly, The Beatles was the great musical phenomenon of the 1960s and 1970s, which has gone on forever, influencing bands and pop music in general. His legacy is indisputable.

In their time they were pioneers and innovators in several aspects, both in vocals, in compositions and in arrangements. Certainly, the help of the competent producer George Martin should be highlighted, in the use of instruments, in the formatting of the music regarding the arrangements and even in the clothing adopted by the group.

During this period, much was re-recorded of the Beatles, in various styles. The material of this post is one of the gems that the blog "jbpimentel" provided us. Unfortunately, many of the links that are there are no longer active.

It is a compilation in "Megamix" format, by the group "The Magic Sound of Deep", released in 1996 by Deep Records. I think it's more of a studio job.
