Recently picked up this CD as I new his hits; Walk Away, From Russia With Love, Born Free etc. What a pleasant surprise this purchase was. Every song here is worth it's weight in gold with Matt's vocals constantly sending shivers down your spine. His interepretations of other songs are what I find the most intriguing. A well crafted 'Best Of' album from one of the best singers this country has produced.

I think he had an amazing voice. There was an undefinable 'something' in it which captured me. 'Softly As I Leave You' breaks my heart. 'We're Gonna Change The World' is just brilliant. ..>

Just bought The Singer's Singer 4-CD set.

Think I like him better than Sinatra!

Not better than Hazlewood though.
