Incanus 5,519 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Well 91 is not a bad age for retirement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 5,273 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Also played on Williams' CINDERELLA LIBERTY, which is even more harmonica-driven than SUGARLAND EXPRESS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,251 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 A hell of a career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hlao-roo 388 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 The man certainly has mad harp skills. Does anyone know if Tommy Morgan has retired, too, or is he still going strong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 5,273 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 I don't know about Morgan. But the third of the alltime harmonica greats is our own Sigmund Groven. He's still going strong, I think, although he's cut down too.Oh yeah, and there's Tommy Riley too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
