“Next to Dairy Queen"

{leviewing a good act is difficult
|ause the problems they have are
complex than those of lesser
tjups, Good bands are good, but
id that something which makes
jem great, and that is what the re-
ver must dig for.
[Morning, a group that played at
Basement Coffeehouse in the
[ISC Friday and Saturday night, is
■ ofthose “good” groups. They are
jlaging, funny, and very talented,
pthey still seem to lack an essential
ething.
| It is hard to describe that essential
Retiring without seeming overly
rffical.
| It just happened, despite their
lazing handling of early sixties
es and country music, they still
| what would be called “a voice
literature.
[voice is something an artist de-
^^Ips in his style that lets a person
JHHiat his work and tell who he is.
&Sj(|Slorning seems almost more at
gmewith the early sixties than any-
else. Excepted of course, is

try, which is where their true roots
seem to be.
Their bass player, Bob Leucke,
played fiddle, and Morning handled
with precision and freewheeling fun
country songs ranging from
“Gringo,” a take-off centering
around a gringo learning to eat Mexi
can food, to “Cotton Eyed Joe.”
It is with original song that the
band’s identity becomes blurred.
Most of the songs have a touch of
Review
country in them, and don’t seem to
be done with as much power as the
songs taken from other groups.
Perhaps it is because they don’t have
much chance to try original material
while on the dining club “bread and
butter” circuit.
And that is a shame. Though one
humorous song, “Show Me a Ring,”
was specially well-done, the more
serious the song seemed to be, the
less intense seemed the playing. Jim
Donahue, their songwriter, reached
the quarter finals in the American
Song Festival twice, and is capable of
writing fine material. It just seems
that he and his group are having
problems in figuring out what they
should do with it.
This isn t saying the performance
was bad. No. The packed crowd in
the Basement Coffeehouse can attest
to that. The show was vastly
entertaining while Morning ham
med it up on stage or took requests.
The only real compliant was that
Leucke, who introduced most of the
songs, over-indulged in being
clever. At first, he’d be funny, but
after a while, he d drag on and on.
That was about it for faults. The
group played tight harmonies, and
Donahue and Issacs both had good
clear voices, complimented by the
pseudo-Martin Leucke, who is a
singer in his own right. The gener
ally unfettered good fun of the
group’s comic banter made the audi
ence feel right at home.
It’s just that despite their wealth of
talent and personable stage qual
ities, Morning has yet to take that
final step to independent personal
ity.
I hope they do.
