I'm from Detroit, the night of this broadcast the electrifying mojo I was a sophomore high School Cody high baby. There was never a DJ quite like the electrifying mojo and I can honestly say I'm a proud member of the midnight funk association to this day and I'm 57, listening to these recordings bring such back awesome memories of Detroit
@michael thank you so much for your comment. I love hearing the stories from people who were there back in the day. I am so pleased that these recordings are such a joy for everyone to listen to.
Cheers!

@@TheOBViOUSChannel most definitely you're welcome and we can't forget about the wizard and Donnie Simpson the midday PJ before he went to B.E.T great memories 98.7 WJLB
Native Detroit-er too and attended Osborn High in the early 80's! Listened to electrifying Mojo loyally and taped his shows on cassettes, such great memories and never experienced another DJ like him. He opened his audience to music we may have never ventured to listen to. The late 70's and early 80's were a special time in Detroit that I will never forget!
Toledo, Ohio....Checking in. I'm also 57, grew up listening to MoJo....and The Midnight Funk Association..
@@41-Rem-Magnum 419 here also MFA always
Detroit, Detroit, Detroit... man I loved listening to Electrifying Mojo!!!!
THESE were THE DAYS!!! On par with Larry Levan....
WTF U TELLN..I Miss Listening Too Him 2..He WAS THE SHIT!!!.THE BADDEST DJ N THE LAND!!!!
1982...Ann Arbor Michigan, driving around town after sunset, honking our horns, flashing our lights, thanking MOJO into membership of Midnight Funk Association. Nothing Like MOJO's mixing...infact a Depeche Mode documentary referenced MOJO's mixing.....God Bless Detroit....God Bless America....God Bless MOJO!
Great memories of my parents letting me and my brother sleep next to the Pioneer SX (the only radio in the house until my brother got a boombox) listening to Mojo on Friday nights.
I'm so bless to have grew up 80's Mojo was the shit!!!! Eastside Detroit Stand up💪

The world just don't understand .. How advanced Brothers and Sisters in Detroit were(love)..We welcomed this Wizard of music Mojo...
The opening is everything and more 🌟💫✨
haha... I agree. 😀
Mojo had quite an epic mojo. 😉
Imagine if corporate radio playlists were replaced by music loving djs with just 1/4 of Mojo's talent, people would listen to radio again, good musicians would get the attention they deserve, and the community would be better off.
AMEN MY BROTHER!
BBC Radio 6 is not bad for eclectic selections of music.
Yes sir
Radio is garbage now
Couldn’t agree more my friend
My Dad loved listening tonMojo in the 80s
Thank you for your message.
Yes it's good to know there are still a lot of people with good taste in this world. :)
Cheers!

we owned E. Jefferson Ave...
I’m so glad I grew up in the Detroit area back in the 1980’s! Such great DJs’ like Authur “Baby!” Penhallow, Dick Purtan, and of course, The Electrifying Mojo! Classic! They don’t make them like this anymore!
Bill Bycraft, cheers! Mojo air-checks are the gifts that keep on giving. 😏✨👍
Yea it's pretty amazing to think that for a LONG time we had excellent DJ's... not just good DJ's but EXCELLENT ones, in basically EVERY genre. It all came crashing down in a relatively short period of time. I was lucky to have been introduced (over the phone) to Mojo by a mutual friend. It was a stunning experience. But WGPR, though they don't often get the credit they deserve, had fantastic personalities right up to their unfortunate end. Ah well, it lives on (sort of) through CZcams. Just unbelievable to think we can't turn ANY station on in Detroit and expect much of anything anymore.
And we had Howard Stern for a short time at W4!
And Mojo was at WGPR at night and Howard Stern was at WWWW in the morning right next door to each other on East Jefferson in Detroit.

How wonderful for us, and how fortunate we were, to have grown up being exposed to positive, affirmative, uplifting messages back then....tie a knot and hang on...communicate to avoid conflict....ain't nobody bad like you....etc....as opposed to the victim/disease/narcissistic culture that is killing our nation today. Wonderful memories of a bygone era. Thank you so very much for posting.
NonNobisSolum I couldn’t agree more. Mojo was a positive force in the universe.✨👍

If you feel like you are at the end of your rope...
Mojo-was who he was-a loyal listener.the old detroit inspiration.oct2022.
I grew up in Flint, Michigan and a friend from the neighborhood turned me onto Mojo. My stereo system receiver could pick up WGPR and I would tape the MFA. I had some good ones! After high school I join the USARMY and my mom threw out all my tapes while I was in basic training!! God Bless her but I was sooo pissed at her for doing that!! SMH
This is the voice of a space god, and we need it today more than ever.
I used to call in all the time to the degree Mojo knew my voice. I miss Mojo. Great memories thanks for sharing.
Cheers @Cheryl De'Vose ... You're very welcome... I wonder if there is a program circulating with your call in !!
We used to rock this in the Saturday Night traffic jams on E. Jefferson...
The best memories of my life! Thank you MOJO. You are the best!!!!
So glad you enjoyed it! 🙂 #mrchristophertv
Used to stay up to listen when I was in middle school
I'm going to tell y'all something, thank you electrifying Mojo this man is DJ motor City's finest turn us on to music that change our perception I'm just living in Detroit. This was the time I can't even explain it you just had to live in the D to understand this shit absolute out to the wizard of course man diesel we're good times under all that stress
Mojo Was THE MAN!! Good ASS MEMORIES..80'S Music Was The Best!!!

my youth, staying up to listen to the GOAT. nothing before or since like this
Detroit Radio was never the same since mojo!
I was living on E. Philadelphia (north end) at the time. After playing tag, double Dutch, skating or playing football ( I had to come in the house or on the porch when the street lights came on), I would wind down or get hyped again off Mojo. I took my allowance money to get a Kraftwerk album because of him.
Mimi Trent, thank you for sharing your personal experience. ❤️✨👍 #electrifyingmojo #mrchristopherTV
Damn those were the days mojo fan for life
Omg omg omg do I miss this man and Detroit back in the day! No one will ever know how blessed
He was the best of the best mo jo

I have always loved your voice 😍😍😍
Wish so bad i could go back to the 70's & 80's does those world ever need mojo now oh well I'm an old fart now but so good to slip back in time p.s. the B'52's ( Messe potamia ) sure sounds damn good...
Dear. God. I would stay up hours listening to Mojo.....on a cheap transistor ....just BEYOND!
I listened to him late at night (had a hard time sleeping as a kid) for HOURS. I had experiences, in that way, that few my age had the opportunity to have... I'm assuming they were asleep! Memories.
They don't make them like this dude anymore. Best days of my life..

Tha Scene Brung me Here Mojo Started on WGPR it was a time N Detroit When WGPR BANGED 24/7 from MARVELOUS MARV 2 MOJO ALL DAY ALL NIGHT 🔊🎵🎶🎵🎶
Use to listen to this at Belle Isle, or after a High School Football game. Man that cant make this kind of talent up these days. Mojo was a every night thing.....Thank You!!!

Yep same here. .. right after a DP football game. 14 st.and Webb.... Linwood
A lot of people don't realize how smart this guy was. The reason he never showed his face because he didn't want to get caught in the ego of being a local celebrity. First and foremost the music always took center stage every night. When we saw him in public it was like talking to a next door neighbor
Accidentally stumbled on this and the memories came rushing in. ))) What an experience it was, growing up and listening to MOJO. There is No one like him ever since. Thank you for digging up this show and sharing it!!! Can't get enough
Cheers! Glad you enjoyed it. (“,)/
#mrChristophertv #theobviouscom
Are you kiddn? This is still a trip if ever more ))) !
I survived Destroyed City through Mojo!
LOVED his show... I learned SO much from him.
LOVE LOVE LOVE! Thank you for sharing this.... MORE PLEASE!
MFA in 2021 👊
I remember driving in my car listening to this very episode. Detroit radio was great. The best.
Hey Ian, that is wild. You were one of the lucky ones. I came to MFA much later in life, all the way down in Florida, 20 years after the fact through tapes of the show. So amazing to hear an original listener of the show. Thank you for sharing your story.
Cheers, #mrchristophertv
When you feel like your slipping, hold on tight tie a knot in it, dont let go. Don't say damn, say woe, double whammy woe! Remember ain't nobody bad like you!
Cheers @Derek Norman. ('',)v Right on, right on.... double whammy whoa! :)
@Google User as far as I know he's still alive. As a matter of fact I have a ex schoolmate that knows him personally. I'll pass your message of courage and strength on to them and maybe Mojo will see this. Stay strong fam! Remember, "ain't nobody bad like you"!
Google User no doubt!
Yes
Followed Mojo all over the dial! For a couple of years, we were blessed to have him DJ our tiny local radio station Tower 98 in Monroe, MI. I used to have a tape of him wishing my best friend happy 17th birthday, while playing 17 Days. I would love to hear that again!
Dori Hudson... Cheers for your comment… Great to hear from Mojo lovers all over the US, especially those who have had the great pleasure of meeting him.
Warm regards,
@mrchristophertv @theobviouscom @digibananaStudio
OMG! I totally forgot about this amazing radio show back in the 80s. I loved listening to him! Thanks for sharing.....
The Hendrix tune is " 3rd stone from the Sun"..Long live the Electrifying Mojo..I still got many cassettes from back then..also of The Wizard ..Jeff Mills
Cheers Jeff! Hope to hear any broadcasts you may have which are unreleased on CZcams. Let us know if you need assistance digitizing them. #mrChristopherTv / at the #digibananastudio

@theobviouscom
Make waves for MFA!
talking about 2001 like he was already knowning something about it
B52's on the radio. Wow. ❤
Daily back then 😎🤩😂
This was huge hit in 1982 especially with the black folks in the Detroit Toledo Ohio region
My auntie used to date Mojo. Man what a cool guy.
@nice guy - Your auntie must've been quite a catch. :) Thank you for the post and for tuning in! My best to you and your auntie. Cheers, mrC
I use listen MOJO every day every night boutique 12 and also tape his music still have the tapes
Raw 80s creativity
Because of large corporations running radio stations I don't think they'll ever be DJ's like the electrifying Mojo again at least not on those stations.
And oh yeah we all love you electrifying mojo you taught us a lot you took us on a musical journey that taught us different genres of music I love that man we show a missed listen to you we sure miss real good radio we don’t have it now it was an honor and a pleasure to get to know and listen to what you used to do or Detroiters and everybody else in radio
This is mind blowingly good and easily blows away anything currently out there. Pure class from start to finish. I'd love to hear more shows of his if they're out there
Never heard of The Electrifying Mojo until I went on a youtube rabbit hole a couple years back watching documentaries on the history of house, acid house and techno. So glad I got turned on to this show because these broadcasts are epic.
Just like it was yesterday on a Friday night ! 419 in the house
is the longest existing recording of the midnight funk association? i have listened to this like 50 times since the summer but need more of this show!!!!!!!
Not to fear! It seems more and more tapes are slowly surfacing. Keep an eye out. ('',)b Thanks for the listening. - The OBViOUS/mrChristopher
No doubt, I am searching right now. I used to have so many cassettes with songs taped off Detroit/Windsor radios, with all the jokes and comments from the most entertaining DJs. and this just kicked while righting this 20:20. Probably haven't heard it in 30 yrs.
There needs to be more long Mojo shows 1984-1985 uploaded. For me, the Prince era (and all records of those years) were the high water mark of Mojo. Lisa Lisa followed, and though she took a cute picture, the letdown was unmistakeable.
It would be wonderful if someone has air checks of those years.
I hope they turn up, David.

Fantastic! I would love to see a photo, perhaps to include in a future M.F.A videos.
My sincere thanks for your service.

I remember listening to an interview The Electrifying Mojo had with Prince in June 1986 around the time of Prince's birthday. Prince, as I recall, had given some concerts in Detroit at that time.
Aldo Nova "Fantasy".
This is great, always heard about EM but never really heard much of his actual broadcasts. I love how "Mesopotamia" by the B 52s keeps returning. Is this all from one show or several? Thanks.
Thanks so much for posting this. So inspiring. Is it from one night's show or is it edited from over a few nights? PS Anyone who wants to hear Mojo's influence, check out the vocals on the Underground Resistance track 'Transition'
Great post. Thanks
Doesn’t anybody have a copy of this mix I’ll be 50 tools and dad’s been loaded whip I’m trying to get those copy some touch up my mojo used to play please can you help me out

Hi I’m trying to get a copy of the B-52 that you’re hearing And the dazz band Whip that mojo used to play does anybody have this music please help with brother out
I'm not sure which remix this includes.
Which version you are your referring too? I believe there are several B-52 Mesopotamia edit variations/remixes. Hit your CZcams search button, and go! Let us know what you find. Cheers for listening.
#mrchristophertv
@@TheOBViOUSChannel This seems to be the only place that this particular Mesopotamia remix exists (like the other poster, I sought it out). It's 🔥
This is a manually created effect with two turntables playing the same albums. Disc Jockey skills.
This is probably going to be a one off made by Mojo .to listen to back in the day he can at times do different version of a song
where is he??????
I was wondering that myself! Especially after Prince died!!!
I was feeling SO ANGRY, WANTED TO HURT SOMEONE, BECAUSE OF TRUMP!! But I came here to RELAX, THANKS SO MUCH , MOJO CALM ME 😘 😉 DETROIT MURRY-WRIGHT 83 IN THE HOUSES!!!
