Bio
As a drummer Chuck Morris has tour with artist such as, Cameo, Chaka Khan, Norman Brown, southern California reggae band Common Sense, just to name a few. Some other accomplishments include Chuck's own band Super Slamm. This band consisted of heavy hitters such as, Gerald Albright on sax, Brian Bromberg bass, Ron Powell percussion, Rob Mullins keys, Norman Brown guitar, and Mike Hunter who later went on to become the lead trumpet for Lenny Kravitz. Some recordings that Chuck can be heard on are, Norman Brown's Mo Jazz release Stormin, Gerald Albright's Dreams come true, Bradford Marselis' Le Fonque' several of Common Sense's releases, and Tell You Why by the Reggae group World Anthem.
The work that Chuck is most known for was for being the drummer on the late night television show "The Arsenio Hall Show". During his six years on the show he's performed with artist from Liza Minelli, Berry White, Madonna, Boyz to Men, Mariah Carey, Herbie Hancock, George Duke, Grover Washington, Quincy Jones, Chick Corea, even President Bill Clinton.
Chuck's most creative accomplishment to date is his completion of his first CD entitled Standing On a Mountain. Chuck put together an 8-piece ensemble and combined a blend of Funky reggae, Afro Jamaican, and spiritual groove that leaves one wondering whether they are in a nightclub or on the white sandy beaches of the Caribbean. Chuck wrote produced 8 out of the 11 tracks . On the CD you will hear three great covers arranged but Chuck. #5 Ziggy Marley's Free like We Want 2 Be, #7 Burning Spears Jah No Dead, And #11 a great ska reggae version and a favorite of many Hey Yah by Andre Benjamin. This CD promises great lively performances for you ears to enjoy. The new Chuck Morris Morris CD "Standing On a Mountain" will add new meaning to the term "funky reggae".

Great job with the overall musical arrangement
author: Clarence GivensIt is about time Chuck came out and did his own thing. I look forward to hearing more from this guy in the future. Great job of putting together some tracks that have both a great sound,and meaning.
The perfect getaway!
author: HeatherThis CD is AWESOME!!! I love it so much, I got 3 copies! It just makes you want to get up and groove. I challenge any one to try to stay seated thru OH LA LA or TASTY TREATS. Just give this CD a listen and you'll find yourself humming the melodies in no time.
Very tight production and arrangement
