This is from Harry B. Soria, but somehow I think Basil had something to do with it, too.


Here's a link to the BBC World Service programmes we did in 2006 on the life of Tau Moe, steel guitarist extraordinaire. I really enjoyed working with Bobby & his BBC associates, as well as all of the fascinating people in Hawaii that contributed to the 2 packages.

Upon checking, I found the links broken so I've re-posted the files..For posterity's sake.
Tau and Family were close friends of Pat and myself.

The Golgowsky track is the flipside of a record that was used for Harlequin, the "Immer bei Nacht" track is "HOME" with German lyrics (Most probably have the English one) John taped this off a test pressing that Tau played for him on one of his visits.

From a tape Tau sent me :-

To top it off a little info about the extended Moe Family.

In particular just listen to "Joe Lanni Moe" singing an incredibly good pop song,

The whole Moe family were close friends of my Wife Pat and myself throughout their stay in Europe from the late 50's onwards..

You do know that Tau was a Mormon and had TWO Wives and TWO families ?

Tau Moe was based in Brussels for most of the 50's-60's and 70's, and there's still some of his family playing in Denmark.

So Dorian (Daughter of Tau and Rose) who lives in Laie is NOT the last of the Moe Family...

Tribute to Tau

This is Joe Lanni Moe son of Tau and Lissi Petersen, Tau's other wife in Denmark.

How's this for a family resemblance ? it's Lei and Lupe with Booker tg Band , hvor de turnerede meget i Jylland


I bet you didn't know about Lissie Peterson and Joe Lanni Tau and the rest ?
