CONCERT

 

CONCERT


circa late 1971-2

Martin Barter (organ), Tony Morgan (bass), Jim Allen (saxophone), Steve Harrison (drums).

Christmas 1971, I got a Christmas card from Coventry bass player Tony (Mojo) Morgan with this diagram inside. A newly proposed Coventry band. Tony had played in bands with Steve Harrison  and Jim Allen before. However I don't the band got off the ground and Tony now has no memory of it. The evidence for it is this Christmas card!

Tony played in lots of bands before and after this from The Mick Green Blues band with Steve harrison to the Coventry ska band in 1979 - 91 EMF with Jim Allen on Sax - they won the battle of the bands and made a single for RCA. Steve Harrison eventually played for La Homme de Terra in the 1980's. Martin Barter also played with many bands from Coconut Mat in the early 70's, now with Joe O'Donnell's Celtic band Shkayla.

Tony Morgan wrote on the original version of this post "Thanx for reminding me Trev my mate. It was such a long time ago now that it's hard to remember everything. Good one Trev.....Peace...Mojo."
Tony Mojo Morgan later with his band The Hoochie Coochie Blues Band in Wales where he relocated to.
