He is known for his mastery of the upper range which is evident in records such as "The Golden Trombone," as well as his ballad playing. He also is an alumnus of the Juilliard School of Music.

Morrow was once a member of the Tonight Show orchestra. His early 1950s records such as "Rose, Rose, I Love You" and "Night Train" rode the Billboard's national charts. In 2009, Morrow was awarded the International Trombone Association's Lifetime Achievement Award, an award that is given to a person who has significantly changed trombone playing around the world.
