Hey there, amazing souls!
First off, let me just say, WOW! What a journey it's been, and I'm beyond grateful to each and every one of you for joining me on this wild ride. Seriously, the fact that we're all here, together, supporting each other's passion for music, it's nothing short of magical. Sometimes I think that more and more people are getting to know my name. There are so many high caliber musicians in my network that I have to admit that I have a place on stage with the best of the best and I’m truly honored to stand with such qualified eyes and ears. Hey I see you all and you all rock. And just as much, to the people that enjoy listening to all the different genres that help them go though the days of the week and so on and so on. I see every one of those likes and shares. These days your inputs add to the algorithms that make the pennies turn to the nickels to the dimes to quarters. So every bit helps and I support artist as well. I say again that talking with you all is especially fun and interesting. One time this guy told me after a gig and says Hey Morris, (they used to call me little Jimi too I thought that was so cool lol) You play so fast that I can't hear it sometimes. " That really stuck with me so I gotta remind myself to slow up sometimes lol. As such at times what I do is during a solo I'll be way out there for a measure or so,,and respectfully cause when I want to play fast....lol...It's like BLBLBLBLBLBLBLBLBLBLBL if you will, lol and them come back down for a measure with the bass, drums and keys whatever. Then guess what,,,I'll get froggy again!!!!!!!!!....lol..... Another thing is that I have played so much by myself that I am always crossing overing and blending the tracks in my riffs and pops, and pings, and pows, if you can imagine. I don’t play just a regular song tracks at times. It’s like I’m thinking ahead in time and thinking about that note I'm about to hit is a few measures, then time the windup to start bringing along lessons learned reaching and passing thru the doors of this labor of love along the way.
Now let’s address the Elephant in the room can we? I mean I'm 68 now and I ask myself, who make's it at 68? Then I look at what I have left to bring to the stage and honestly, I can't do the pelvic stands like I used to. I mean I had a really tough pelvic stand too...sorry ya'll, you gotta take my word for it for the most part but if I get my second knee replacement,,,1,2,3,LOOKOUT!!!!! Lol. And playing now for over 50 years I find still find myself with a pretty solidly strong hand strength as I practice chording and exercise my palms and fingers. Also realistically I'm looking to do what I do in more or less 3 years to lay it all out there so we can film it and bring it home to enjoy for generations to come. That’s a lot in a nutshell I know Huh? Lol. So to answer the question, "who makes it at 68"? lol....Well I’m thinking,,,,,Morris Taylor can. lol...That's right..I said it, I meant it, and I'm here to represent it too. lol. And I have to show everyone just how I much I appreciate the support to everyone that passes my music on to other's and please continue to do so. And stand by, in addition to adding See You Running, Long Way Home and now DOOM THE BOMB which thankfully are doing very well in the Funk and Psychedelic Rock Charts are telling me I must be doing something right. Tascam and I can do anything I want. Makes me want to laugh like a mad scientiist. Hahahahahahahahah....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol. Let me just say, the possibilities are endless!,
So, to all of you incredible souls who have been spreading the word, sharing my music with others, and cheering me on from the sidelines, I want to express my deepest gratitude. Be it known, You are the heartbeat of this musical journey, and I couldn't do it without each and everyone of you. As we continue to ride this wave of inspiration and creativity, I invite you to stand by for what lies ahead. Together, we're writing the next chapter of this incredible adventure, and I have a feeling it's going to be nothing short of legendary.
I’ve been saying this lately to a lot of you. My music respectfully like “the soup of the day” same as “song of the day”, is best served and shared with friends.
All My Love, Peace and Happiness,

Song: See You Running
Overall Impression
Texas-based recording artist Morris Moon Taylor serves up a heaping helping of deep Southern fried funk, with his original release of "See You Running." This mid tempo track features a hazy psychedelic sound and a substantial groove that's sure to get audiences up on their feet. Taylor's lyrics explore the subtle dichotomy between patience and urgency, his vocals delivered with animalistic elegance and produced in a smoky, nebulous fashion that gives off a wonderfully vintage vibe. Funk and psychedelic soul fans do not want to miss out on the retro goodness and creative brilliance of Morris Moon Taylor's "See You Running."
Strongest Point(s)
Solid production, decent mix for a DIY project. Fantastic energy, straight off the top with the breakbeat. Compelling arrangement, excellent song structure. Love the turnaround at approximately 2:10. Terrific groove, great bass line. Will definitely get butts shaking. Nice vintage synth tones. Great vocal style and delivery, though the clarity is lacking. The lyrics themselves are both enlightened and thought-provoking, imparting wisdom upon the listener. All in all, it's a tremendous song, great groove and a fine track that just needs a little production polish.
Target Audience Appeal
Fans of Funk, Soul, RnB, Psychedelic Soul
Artist target suggestions
Parliament, Funkadelic, Bootsy Collins, Jimi Hendrix, Sly & the Family Stone, Stevie Wonder, Bernie Worrell, The Isley Brothers, Rick James, Shuggie Otis, Edwin Starr, The Chambers Brothers

Happy Greetings Everyone!!!!!!!!
I hope this message finds you groovin' to the beats of life! I'm here to share some exciting updates about my upcoming CD, "Somewhere, Someway, Somehow Someday." Your support has been the wind beneath my musical wings, and I can't wait to take you on this new sonic journey.
But wait, there's more! I've got a little surprise for you - a collaboration that's been in the works and is now ready to hit your ears. Joining forces with the incredibly talented Johnny Mutt, we've cooked up a track named "Long Way Home." Johnny brought his A-game to the table, not just engineering the piece but also laying down some fantastic bass, killer guitar tracks, and a full effect drummer Bucket Milam that'll make your heart race. And, of course respectfully, the icing on the cake: Morris Taylor, our Denton troubadour, contributed some mind-bending PSYCHO-delicic leads and lent his vocals to the mix. (Johnny says).
Now, Johnny had some choice words about "Long Way Home" on his end, calling it "Just another nut that fell out of the tree." Well, let me tell you, this nut has some serious flavor! I've sprinkled in my guitar work and vocals to make it a bounce around in your head between the ears lol. Johnny has graciously shared the spotlight, listing it on his N1M account The Euro Mutts with our combined credit. Show some love and grab it from his page if you haven't already!
But that's not all! I've also dropped a new track for you to enjoy while we wait for the full album release. "See You Running (Funk)" and "Long Way Home (Psychedelic)" are the tasty appetizers to get you in the mood. These tunes give you a sneak peek into the eclectic sounds you can expect from "Somewhere, Someway, Somehow Someday."
I'm beyond thrilled with how these collaborations have turned out, and I hope you find as much joy in listening to them as we did creating them. Your continued support means the world to me, and I can't wait to share the full album with you soon.
Stay funky, stay psychedelic, and most importantly, stay tuned!
All my Love, Peace and Happiness,

Dear fans and followers,
I want to express my sincere appreciation for the incredible response and support I've received as I embark on this exciting phase of my musical journey. It's been an extraordinary experience so far, and it's all thanks to you. I must apologize for lack of experience in having fans and followers. I have to have something to offer everyone to keep them coming back for more.
As I mentioned previously, there's a phrase that's been echoing in my mind recently: "be careful what you wish for Morris." It's both exhilarating and daunting, but I want you to know that I am so ready to walk thru those saloon doors and have at it. I am so excited and "I ain't scared at all ya'll". So ready to find and fulfill this destiny of a dream of mine.
Now, I'd like to take this opportunity to connect with you all as best as possible to establish a friendship. A kinship if you will. While I'm truly grateful for the platform and the recognition, I believe it's equally important for me to get to know each and every one of you. Your feedback, your stories, and your perspectives are invaluable to me.
So, I encourage you to reach out and share your thoughts, ideas, and experiences. I want to hear from you, learn about your musical preferences, and understand what resonates with you the most. Whether you have questions, suggestions, or just want to chat, I'm here and eager to engage with you.
I've always believed that music has the power to connect people, and I'm excited to build a deeper connection with all of you. Let's make this journey even more memorable by sharing it together.
Thank you for being a part of this incredible community, and I'm looking forward to the conversations and connections that lie ahead. Your support means the world to me, and I can't wait to get to know you better.
All my Love, Peace and Happiness,

Song: Sensations Override
Overall Impression:
An electrifying explosion of unbridled energy bombastically collides with a blues-drenched, groove-lathered sense of swagger in Morris Moon Taylor's psychedelia-steeped rocker "Sensations Override", a most fitting name I'm sure most avid rock enthusiasts will agree. Effortlessly capturing the spirit of the genre and its gloriously free-spirited attitude, Morris Moon Taylor offers listeners a soaring guitar-soaked blues rock epic, an extravaganza of crunchy riffs, wild lead breaks, and infectious grooves that serves as a loving tribute to the genre's glorious heydays. I've reviewed a few tracks by electric wizard Morris Moon Taylor now, and each one brings a tantalizing level of energy and a refreshingly care-free sense of attitude, and thankfully "Sensations Override" is no different, and whilst there are perhaps some areas that could be with some tweaking here and there, there's simply no denying that Morris and his trusty six-stringer capture the blistering nature of the psychedelic blues/funk rock genre perfectly.
Strongest Point(s):
Being an avid blues rock enthusiast myself, I always enjoy coming across artists that endeavor to keep the spirit of the genre alive and Morris Moon Taylor brings an energy to the table that simply cannot be denied. The towering guitars, melodic vocals, and memorable grooves perfectly capture that very particular sense of both excitement and awe that only the rock genre can create, ensuring "Sensations Override" lives up to its title. I also appreciate the interplay that occurs between both the bass and guitar elements of the track and thanks to this a great deal of contrast is created. The animated nature of the bass lines helps form a continually interesting yet firm sense of momentum whilst the lead-infused chordal playing of Morris ensures there's a good deal of both rhythmic and melodic variation happening over the top - and once you factor in Morris' undeniably soulful vocal delivery, you end up with an engaging mix of sounds, ideas, and feelings.
Target Audience Appeal:
This is definitely one for the psychedelic funk rock lovers!
Artist target suggestions:
Jimi Hendrix, Frank Marino, Kenny Wayne Shepard, Johnny Lang, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Gary Moore, Joe Bonamassa, Robin Trower, Ted Nugent, Walter Trout, Eric Gales, Popa Chubby

Dear Fans, Friends and Subscrbers I hope this message finds you all in good health and high spirits. Today, I find myself in a reflective mood, compelled to express my gratitude and share some personal insights with all of you who have supported me on this incredible journey. It's an honor to have such an incredible community of people who have allowed me to reach new heights in my musical career.
Over the years, I've been fortunate to witness the growth of our music family, as we've transformed from a small group of dedicated listeners into a vibrant, supportive community.

Your support and enjoyment of my work make this journey all the more rewarding. Knowing that my music touches your hearts and resonates with your souls is a source of immense pride.
