Man, we've been busy!
It has come to my attention that none other than Sean "Topol" Genockey has been busy keeping journalists in gainful employment. Sean featured in The Guardian last Saturday, and has also been busy talking studio wizzardry to techie publication, Audio Pro Magazine. If that's not enough, the Gnock's also just played at the Isle of Wight festival with Wills & The Willing, featuring none other than Moke No. 5 Charlie Morton on drums.
Similarly, Hogg have also been busy, playing the Isle of Wight two days after Sean & Charlie. Their next date is at the Hyde Park Calling festival on the 28th June. I've just mixed a track for them, called Television Blues. It can be downloaded for free from their rather snappy new website.
Now if that isn't enough activity for you, Johnny Morgan and the magnificent Senser have been busy enjoying a range of service stations accross the UK whilst touring, something they will continue to be doing throughout the summer. A new album is due out in September - details available here.
Blimey, I'm knackered just thinking about it all. I'm off for a rest...

Thanks for the links. Love the Hogg tunes!!
Quick question. Did Moke record any other Beatles tunes? I have 2 downloaded that you had on your old Moke website but would love to hear more. :-)
I only remember recording one - Baby You're A Rich Man, buttherearetwo versions of that - one from Album 2 sessions in LA, and one from Album 2 sessions in London. Neither version made the finished record.
The other track you must be thinking of is a live version of Tomorrow Never Knows, at the Double Door in Chicago.
No other Beatles covers were attempted! Though we did a good Back in Black.
Hi Alex. I have one version of "Baby You're a Rich Man" and yes, the other Beatles cover was the live version of "Tomorrow Never Knows" you speak of. Fantastic job!! I just can't believe how much material you guys recorded in such a short time. I also loved the fact that you posted these rarities on your old site for us Mokesters to have and enjoy.
eek!Back in Black? :-) Who did the Angus head bop?|O|
Any other cover tunes? Any Moke-ish Nana Mouskouri covers? :-)
