Morris played drums on all of the the Time 1st 2 albums and Prince added some drum machine tracks with Morris playing & Prince on everything else...and the 3rd album the "Ice Cream Castle" album is mostly a Jesse Johnson album with Morris vocal & some drums, Prince co-wrote & played keyboards with Jesse and Prince played No guitars on that album & Jellybean played drums on "The Bird" with the new members live...Morris originally supposed to play in Prince's band with Andre, Dez, Gayle & Matt but he chose Bobby Z because he like his looks... and I think to with Morris & Andre together, it would have been too difficult & hard to control them because they were some real Black bad asses young men....like thugs, getting into trouble kicking Prince little ass and shit !....
