Hats Off to Morgana Welch!

Part of being Rock’N’SeXXXy is that wild, almost reckless desire to push boundaries – to feel the freedom of your own tumblr_mywllhT4en1tofx6ao1_1280choices. That describes how a lot of us remember the ’70s being – a carefree time, when ecstatic experiences were encouraged, actually sought after. In that respect, Morgana Welch has lived a life to be envied – a golden groupie of the highest echelon, dancing the days away with famous musicians like Robert Plant, John Paul Jones, Roy Harper and a few others.

Sex, drugs and rock’n’roll defined the era and Morgana was on the scene; at the Continental Hyatt House, hoping some famous rock musician might take a fancy to a tanned, turned-on teen queen of the Sunset Strip. She recorded it all in a memoir called “The Hollywood Diaries.” Available for Kindle and also in hardcopy from Amazon (this would be a great read alongside another RNSU guest’s book, “Dirty, Rocker Boys” by video vixen Bobbie Brown, who was a muse of the ’80s – that’s your Rock’N’SeXXXy summer reading recommendations).

RNSU was so honored to have Morgana on last Thursday! Especially producer Jojo, who has wanted to squeeze mw711bRobert Plant’s lemon since she was about 13, back in the ’70s. Morgana confirmed that Plant is very nice, just as Jojo imagined, and that he has a big… penis. Since that’s as close as producer Jojo is likely to get to Robert Plant’s penis, she’s quite happy with that information. We also found out that Morgana had a FOURSOME with musicians John Paul Jones, Roy Harper and (we’re assuming) another lovely, young lady. Well, well! John Paul Jones – it’s always the quiet ones that turn out to be the most fun, right?

Morgana knew Iggy Pop only in passing. She recalled warm memories of the Winter Brothers. There’s a photo of her, sitting next to young David Bowie, when he first came to America. If you want to know the rest, buy the book. We love you, Miss Morgana, fine and foxy as you are, for being a luminary during that enlightened period that will turn out to be the golden years of electric rock’n’roll. Producer Jojo salutes you! Hats off to a woman brave and bodacious enough to live those fantasies. That’s what Rock’N’SeXXXy is ALL about!

If you missed it, listen to the show here.

Miss Groupie Supreme Sunset Strip Queen Morgana Welch Comes by to Rock It SeXXXy this Thursday

300x300There was a golden time, throughout the ’70s and into the ’80s, when the true daughters of the Sexual Revolution came into their own. Free, fine and funky, young girls found their ways to NYC, San Francisco – of course, many a muse landed in Hollywood, at places like the Whisky, The Rainbow, Gazzarri’s and Rodney Bingenheimer’s British Disco. Los Angeles was the epicenter of the music scene at that time; stadium rockers who sold millions of albums and concert tickets, fueled by wheelbarrows full of booze and drugs, with the most beautiful, ethereal groupies in tow.

Morgana Welch is one of those Angels of the Sunset Strip; a party girl in powder blue eye shadow with a mane of honey blonde hair. The kinda girl you read about in Creem or Circus Magazine. The kinda girl that was the envy of other teen girls, stuck out in the suburbs, that fantasized about meeting Robert Plant or Jimmy Page, Iggy Pop or David Bowie.

Thursday night, April 3, Amber Lynn Rock’N’SeXXXy UnCensored is thrilled to host Miss Morgana and talk about her book “The Hollywood Diaries.” We want to know ALL about the bands, of course, but also about some her groupie cohorts. Actually, producer Jojo was one of those girls stuck in the suburbs during the late ’70s, so she’s dying to hear the dish about all her favorite bands. Miss Amber Lynn has a few Sunset Strip stories, as well – and if we’re very good – she just might tell us a few.

It’s gonna be a GREAT show, so don’t miss it. Call Amber Lynn Rock’N’SeXXXy UnCensored at 323-203-0815 and talk to us LIVE THURSDAY NIGHTS, at 7pm PST/10pm EST – TUNE IN, baby, on LATalkRadio.com., Stitcher.com and iTunes.
