THE MOJO SINGERS WERE ALAN MORRIS AND ALLAN JOHNSON (MORRIS AND JOHNSON = MOJO). THEY WERE THE CATCHIEST JINGLE WRITERS IN OZ WITH AD CAMPAIGNS THAT MADE MILLIONS....THEY WERE COMMISSIONED BY CHANNEL 9 TO WRITE A JINGLE FOR THE NEW CRICKET "WORLD SERIES CUP" GAMES CIRCA 1978 BUT THE SONG USED FOR THE COMMERCIAL WAS SO POPULAR THAT THE RECORD COMPANIES PERSUADED THEM TO ISSUE IT AS A SINGLE. THEIR 7" SINGLE "C'MON AUSSIE C'MON" GOT TO POSITION #3 ON THE CHARTS IN 1979 (YOU CAN FIND THIS SONG ELSEWHERE ON MY BLOG ALONG WITH INFORMATION ABOUT DOUG WALTERS MY UNCLE-IN-LAW).THE FOLLOWING YEAR OUT THEY CAME WITH A NEW VERSION OF THE OLD CHESTNUT CALLED "C'MON AUSSIE C'MON - THE NEW ERA". THIS NEWER VERSION GOT TO #15 NATIONALLY. THEY HAD THE SAME FORMULA AT THE START BUT WITH A REGGAE FINISH...
FOR DOWNLOAD IS THE SINGLE VERSION OF "C'MON AUSSIE C'MON - THE NEW ERA" KINDLY DONATED BY ALAN K. A REGULAR CONTRIBUTOR TO MY BLOG. MANY THANKS AL.
