NEW CD RELEASED!!

The official launch will be at the Semaphore Workers Club on Friday, 18th of October. 

 

     DONS BOOK!

“This Could Be Big” will be released  toward the middle of the year.

Here’s what writer and critic David Sly has to say about Don’s musical autobiography..

“Don Morrison rips into a song as an axeman would assault a lumberyard; veins bulging like ropes from that thick throat, sweat darkening an already dark flannel shirt, strident voice roaring like a Force 10 gale that pins you to the back wall, supported by the menace of brutally strummed guitars and ageing amplifiers. Geez, you think to yourself, this guy is really doin’ it, really making music like he means it.

Don has done it this way for more than 30 years, the only way he knows how. He gets on and does the things he feels are worthwhile; writes his own songs, starts a band, records his own music, keeps playing to audiences of all ages, sizes and situations, then builds his own guitars, cars, motorbikes, telescopes. And now he writes about the whole ordeal, a delicious mix of ham and wry filling this book with tales tall and true about how pub rock became a cultural force in Adelaide, carrying the furtive dreams of so many that never quite got to make it big. Still, better to have remained big hearted rather than become big headed, a virtue that makes Don imminently more affable, endearing and enduring than any of the translucent pop stars that were momentarily big before disappearing completely. Don, by notable contrast, is still really doin’ it.”
