Geffery Morgan

Geffery Morgan is the fifth album by UB40. Released in 1984, it takes its title from a piece of chalk graffiti on a wall: "Geffery Morgan...loves white girls". Following the huge success of their covers album, Labour of Love, all tracks on this album are self-penned. The album contained the hit "If It Happens Again", which reached #9 in the UK charts.[4]
