Some Tony Hawks images

Tony Hawks originally started out as a singer and song writer, however his first brush with the charts was with novelty pop act "Morris Minor and the Majors". Their first hit was the Beastie Boys parody "Stutter Rap" which in 1988 hit #4 in the UK charts, #2 in Australia and #14 in Canada.

Their follow up single "This is the Chorus" a spot-on dig at the Stock, Aitken and Waterman music writing machine failed to live up to the first effort and entered the UK charts at #95. It faired only very marginally better in Australia hitting #22.

After gaining the prestigious accolade of one-hit wonder Tony toured with the group for many years on the comedy circuit before departing from the act and even wrote and starred in UK series Morris Minor's Marvellous Motors (1989) which lasted 1 series.

These days a stand-up comedian, singer and writer he has recently been collaborating with music projects with sort of namesake Chesney Hawkes and Ash Alexander. He regularly appears as a panelist on radio and television including: Grumpy Old Men (2003), Have I Got News for You (1990) and was a regular favorite guest actor/voice on Red Dwarf (1988).

He has written 4 books including: "One Hit Wonderland", written for obvious reasons; "Round Ireland with a Fridge" the result of a bet he'd made with a friend; "Playing the Moldavans at Tennis" another result of drunken bet and most recently "A Piano in the Pyrenees".

Tony donated half of his royalties from "Playing the Moldovans at Tennis" to a trust fund for Moldova which was used to open the Hippocrates Centre, a medical centre that provides rehabilitative therapy for disabled children from socially vulnerable families.

Tony continues to support this cause.
