In the 1950s he played with Charlie Barnet, Si Zentner, Terry Gibbs, and Bob Florence, then did a stint in the U.S. military, for which reason he had to turn down an offer to play in the orchestra of Stan Kenton. From 1960-65 he played in Maynard Ferguson's orchestra; after a few years in New York City he returned to Los Angeles in 1969, where he played frequently in the studios, was a member of Supersax, and played in the big bands of Bill Berry, Bob Florence, and Bill Holman.Morgan also played on sessions for Nancy Sinatra
Though most frequently seen playing baritone sax on the Chuck Barris shows he was in the house band for, Lanny Morgan is an accomplished alto sax player who has recorded four albums under his own name and is a former member of Maynard Ferguson's band.
