The Marlowe Morris Quintet was an American jazz ensemble active during the mid-20th century, led by organist and pianist Marlowe Morris. Known for a style that combined elements of blues, bebop, and soul, the quintet's unique sound was characterized by Morris's Hammond organ playing. While they never achieved mainstream success, the group is respected within jazz circles for their role in the early development of the soul-jazz genre. Their most noteworthy work is perhaps the album "Play the Thing," which displays their distinctive musical style.
