Tony and I share a mutual interest, our love for the blues music. Without further ado, I present to you, Tony”Mojo”Morgan.

BO: How did you decide to become a blues artist?

BM: I didn’t decide Bobbie! It was just a feeling I have when I hear blues music, I was just hooked on these blues.

BM: I believe blues music will survive and live on and on throughout endless times.

BO: What if any significant changes have you noticed in the way blues music is delivered?

BM: I think it’s great to have all the styles of blues with funk, Jazz, Rock, everything goes. There is plenty of room for all sorts of blues.

BO: What is the most awkward experience you have had as an entertainer?

BM: Sorry to say this, Bobbie, I cannot think of one case, my friend!

BO: Did you go to a school of muisc to learn to play guitar or do you, like myself, play by ear?

BM: I have played all over the UK as part of The Paul Jones Blues Band,ex Manfred Man Tony McPhee’s Band, ex Groundogs Stan Webb’s Blues Band with Christine McVie from Fleetwood Mac and many more. I must say that my tenure with these bands were all some of the best experiences one could ever have.

BO: How many if any CD’S have you done?

BM: We have been too busy writing and performing our own material until we never seem to get into the studio! I have about twenty songs on MP3. Come next year we will be doing an album because the demand for our personal CD has been great.

BO: Did you receive any assistance by any other artist or professional while getting started in the music business?
