Today on The Grave Talks, moonshine music and ghosts, a conversation with author Tony Brooks.

In his new book, Moonshine Music and Ghosts, Tony Brooks invites you on a rollicking adventure through the stories of his life.

A world where moonshine flowed like water, dance halls blazed with country rock anthems, and ghostly encounters defied explanation.

Because beyond the music of moonshine lies another side of Tony's life, his chilling encounters with the supernatural.

From a ghostly woman in an old-fashioned gown wandering his brother's house to a glowing orb of

light in his father's basement, Tony's ghost stories will leave you questioning the boundary

between the living and the dead. Join us as we explore a life where the echoes of history and spirits of the past are never

far away.

Today on the Grave Talks, Moonshine, Music, and Ghosts, a conversation with author Tony Brooks.

So, Tony, thank you so much for joining me today.

I read your book.

It's called Moonshine Music and Ghosts.

So how did you come up with that title? Once I read the book, I know, but in that order with

moonshine music, then ghosts. Thank you for having me on your broadcast. I appreciate that.

Thank you for joining me today. And, you know, the order that I,

basically everything started with moonshine, basically with my father and with my uncles and

grandfather in Alabama. So that was my starting point. And then in the middle there is music is something that I got into and that's something

that I think comes naturally to me, to my siblings, brother and sister.

Because my mother wasn't a musician, then in the traditional sense, she could play some chords on a guitar,

but she used to sing on the radio in Alabama, and as they called her the Alabama sweetheart.

So she was always loved music and always had music playing.

And we just naturally moved in that direction.
