Hi, my name is Pete, aka Mountain Jack Morgan and I have been playing guitar
& singing all types of blues, country, swing and ragtime since I left school. I started off like a lot of people did with
a cheap acoustic guitar which was hardly playable and scratched out the songs of the day while my fingers ached & almost
bled.
I was lucky in that I had a lot of friends with large record collections the most of which were blues or
traditional country, and I spent hours listening & working out the chords and lyrics. I never gave up and soon built a
decent size set list which I could go out and perform in the folk & blues venues around at the time.
Pix of a small gig at the Burnham Music Festival in Somerset with Dave Wright We play a mixture of Western
Swing and Jazzy Blues with a little bit of Country thrown in for good measure.

Latest news, READ ALL ABOUT IT ! yes folks, you heard it here first, Mountain Jack
aka Pete Jones (me) is back from playing the Cahors Blues Festival, the set was strictly Chicago blues and we played
songs by Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Willie Dixon and many more besides. I will be uploading some of our music soon with
video but in the meantime a few pix will have to do.
