Is Matt Monro the highest selling UK music artist of 2007?!
Question:
Is Matt Monro the highest selling UK music artist of 2007?
My dad is trying to convince me saying that for the start of 2007 he sold more music than any body else in the UK. I don't believe him as he never had a no.1 and most people wouldn't have even heard of him. Please help!
Answers:
ask your dad as to what MATT MONROS real name was for you it was Terrance Parsons his job before he became a singer was a bus driverhe was born in London in 1930 -and died in 1985 in 1961 he was named by billboard Magazine The top international Act and The most promishing male singer MATT MONRO STARTED HIS SINGING IN 1960 WITH A SONG CALLED PORTRAIT OF MY LOVE , THIS WAS THE THE SONG THAT GOT HIM TO NUMBER 3 IN THE U.K CHARTS HIS NEXT SONG WAS CALLED "MY KIND OF GIRL " THIS MADE NUMBER 5 IN THE CHARTS . HE MADE 6 MORE SINGLES AND NOT ONE OF THESE MADE IT PASSED20 EXCEPT FOR SOFELY AS I LEAVE YOU WHICH MADE IT TO NUMER 10 ONLY ONE OTHER SINGLE MADE IT INTO SINGLE FIGUES AND THIS WAS "WALK AWAY" IN 1964 . AS FAR AS I KNOW HE ONLY MADE 4 l.ps AND HIS LAST ONE WAS IN 1980 TITLE OF THAT WAS HEARTBREAKERS WHICH WAS HIS BEST SELLING L.P IT GOT TO NUMBER 5 IN THE L.P.CHARTS. MATT MONROE WAS NEVER IN THE TOP 20 AS THE MOST RECORD ARTIST IN SINGLES OR IN L.PS , AS WE ARE ONLY HALF WAY THROUGH 2007 , I DO NOT THINK THAT HE WAS THE HIGHEST SELLING U.K MUSIC ARTIST ,
