Musically however, Mission In Progress is the realization of Morgan Heritage’s “ROCKAZ” concept: reggae music with an edge. «I think this record is the most aggressive one that we’ve ever done both musically and personally,» says vocalist/keyboardist Una Morgan. «A lot of our inner feelings from growing up in the industry and the experiences that we’ve had touring the world, specifi cally in Africa, are refl ected here and served as the inspiration for this album.”

The brothers and sisters came together for the first time professionally in 1982, when they recorded their fi rst songs. “When people fi rst heard the combination of Una, Peter and Gramps’ vocals, how they blended together, it was like magic,” says Mr. Mojo. “Everybody in our dad’s band was blown away that these guys could sound so good at such an early age.” “ Morgan Heritage is a roots-reggae band,” says Gramps. “There’s a lot of rock and roll influence, but also a lot of R&B infl uence, and a lot of gospel influence.
Vocally, it’s more like an R&B infl uence: James Ingram, Sam Cooke, Charlie Wilson, Stevie Wonder, New Edition, Sade, whatever was Top 40 in the ‘ 80s.
That whole pack, that whole bundle is in Morgan Heritage
