Live Concert Reviews
Maryville Daily Times, May 2006
"Musicians cobbling together tracks for a live album have a tough choice to make — do they zero in on the songs that display the best musicianship, or do they home in on the ones that best capture the buoyant spirit of playing live?"
Blues Matters, September 2005
"Audience participation was the name of the game and the rapturous applause at the end showed how much this intriguing group of musicians had been appreciated."
Blues In Britain, September 2005
"Playing an infectious mix of original songs and some rarely- heard covers, the band eased the crowd into the weekend. Special mention must go to the ultra-talented sideman Devin Rice, who displayed great virtuosity on harp, keys and guitar! The band was obviously well appreciated by the crowd."
CD Reviews
Blues & Rhythm, May 2006
"Regular visitors to Britain these days from their home base in Florida, Charlie Morris and crew have a growing following and listening to this CD - Charlie's third for BluesPages - recorded in England last year, it is not hard to understand why."
12 Bar Rag, December 2002
"Charlie my boy, you've outdone yourself. "Still Got 'Em" is as tasty a CD as I've run across this whole century!"
Blues Revue, Feb/March 2004
"There's enough variety and feeling here for two albums. Great tunes diverse in style, arrangement and instrumentation."
Tampa Bay Musician, July 2003
"You can sum up Charlie Morris' Blues CD "Still Got 'Em" in a single four letter word...REAL"
La Hora del Blues, January 2003
"Charlie passionately performs and feels the blues."
Interviews
Knoxville News-Sentinel, December 14, 2007
"Charlie Morris has paid his dues for the Blues."
Maryville Daily News, December 14, 2007
"Charlie Morris Band to make fourth visit to Brackins."
Authentic Blues, 2000
"What's the point of all this crap? Isn't what the album sounds like what matters? Who cares what size or color I am as long as people like the music?"
Deutsche Presse
Liechtensteiner Volksblatt, 14 Februar, 2006
"Nebst der Musik begeisterte der Sänger Charlie Morris die Konzertbesucher mit seinem Schalk in den Augen."
Oltner Tagblatt, Januar 2003
"Schweizer Bier, Kaffee und Brot sind eine Reise Wert."
Concerto (A) Review of Still got 'em, 2003
"Hervorragender Gitarrist, markanter Sänger und trefflicher Songwriter."
Bluesbox (D) Review of Still got 'em, 2003
"Die neun Songs seiner zweiten CD stammen alle aus eigener Feder und bringen das, was man erwartet, nämlich Blues in unterschiedlichen Facetten, unterlegt mit satten Hammond-Klängen und getrieben durch eine starke Bläserfraktion."
Italiano
Paso Music, 2004
Un artista, una band che meritano di riporre nel cassetto ancora per almeno una sera ancora gli spiriti carnevaleschi per poter essere visti.
