EMF - Anti- Bellum b/w One Way Girl. This was Mojo (Tony) Morgan's Ska band c1979 - 81. They are featured on the 1981 Battle of the Bands album and this was a single although it didn''t chart. Mojo's idea for the band was to mix Ska with blues bass-lines.I was their resident dancer for a while! CND were big in Coventry at this time (as elsewhere) as this song reflects. Unfortunately it's still relevant!

With Someone Nice Like You - by Trev Teasdel- In 1979 Mojo Morgan asked me to write some songs for his new band EMF. This was one of two I wrote for the band before he got two female singers in the band who wrote their own material. It just a cassette writing demo on acoustic guitar - cleaned up a bit on computer.
