Originally released as 'A Touch of Class' exclusively for the fan clubs of Matt Monro and Nelson Riddle its popularity prompted the Matt Monro Estate to buy the rights and re-master and re-market it. This is the soundtrack from the legendary concert recorded on 14 July 1967 featuring Matt with an all-star orchestra conducted by Nelson Riddle.

Several discs have seen the light of day that are not endorsed by this site and in the case of the Cyril Stapleton Cd don't even feature Matt at all. If you haven't read about a project on this site it is probably pirated.
