Mick Morris
CD
Album: Reflections
Guitar Instrumental - diverse genres
Red Admiral
Records - REDAD CDA559
January 2009
As an accompanist or band member, Mick has worked with artists as diverse as Roy Castle and Eric Clapton and as a sideman with luminaries from the jazz world including Tony Coe, Pat Halcox and Joe Harriot. In the early 60's he was lead guitarist with the original Dover-based Rolling Stones and was later a founder member of cult progressive rock outfit Mirkwood. Somewhat surprisingly then, Reflections is Mick's first solo album.
Shop and Downloads
For Mick however, it has always been his passion for the instrument and the composition, rather than for any particular field of music, that mattered most and the diversity of musical styles found on his Reflections album certainly shows his reluctance to be pigeon-holed into any of the usual rock, country, jazz, folk etc. genres.

About
Us
Red Admiral Records originally launched its label in 1979 and
Commercial Publishing Company Cringe Music with the
Arthur Kay's Ska Wars single. Over the years the imprint has been found on many
releases from Kent Artistes. The label went through some dormancy some years ago
and some of its products/artists were transferred to other labels but Red Admiral
Is Back, supporting artists locally and internationally.
The
company is actively searching for new up and coming artistes who are looking for
label deals and has an interest in established acts who are now out of contract
with any label they were with. In an effort to become pro active in the rapidly
growing AOR and MOR markets Red Admiral Records relaunched it's dominent imprint
as a home for new and established artistes in the adult contemporary market and
to position the company and label idents for "mass-market" artistes
across all styles of music.
Red Admiral Records LLP incorporated in 2008
combining the creation and digital distribution services of Red Admiral, Cringe
Music (Publishing) and Media suppliers and PR from Kent & E Sussex Gig Guide. General Manager of the
company Chris Ashman feels that the company should not operate as a fixed genre
label, so as they expand, their digital releases and distribution have welcomed
interest from a wider spectrum of artists and reportoire. Chris has spent some
time as Music Industry Consultant for New Deal for Musicians. He is MD of Digimix
Records Ltd, works in the film, TV , radio, film, audio-visual, advertising and
media industries and advises other small independent record labels on their commercial
record releases.
Chris is also the co-founder of the One Kent Organisation
with producer John Milton who in the past has worked with (Mike Stock, of Stock
Waterman & Aitken), John is also the companies first choice as photagraher
for projects.
As
the market for audio products has changed Red Admiral is developing the range
and style of its output to meet the current demand, from internationally distributed
digital and phsical product to create-on-demand for niche and collector projects.
As a small independet cpmpany there will always be some projects that are too
large, with the risk outweighing the benefits for the company, artists and clients
but we see a future where no commercial project should be seen as too small.If
you feel that your project could be helped by the interaction of professionals,
please don't be too shy to make contact.
