Thanks for featuring my Grandfather. I appreciated listening to "Hey Mr. Banjo" again!
Samir Ansari
Freddy Morgan's Grandson from his first marriage.
Great Player of the old style on Tenor banjo, Std and Uke. Saw him at his show, St James theatre in Wellington, New Zealand circa 1959-60. Did the full show to a full house, one man , one night, one memory of a lifetime.
I wish I could get in touch with Samir Ansari, we are cousins. Your Grandfather and Great Uncle Dave were my grandmother's nephews.
Freddy was such an icon to us. I think my mother might still have the "Hey Mr. Banjo" and "She Didn't Even Say Goodbye" sheet music somewhere in her home.
If you check back on here Samir, please get in contact with me.
