A.k.a. Joseph L. Morris

American trumpet player. Born: 1922. Died: 1958. Joe Morris started his career as a jazz trumpet player, but he's mostly known as the leader of the R&B-oriented Joe Morris Orchestra (the unofficial house band for Atlantic in the early to mid-1950's, and several future Atlantic stars passed through its ranks, including Ray Charles and Lowell Fulson). Morris wrote "Anytime, Any Place, Anywhere" for Atlantic and put the new record company on the map when it soared to number one on the R&B charts.
