Speckled Stallion was a band fronted by Phillip Morrison back in the 60s. Though Morrison liked to brag about how they played the third-longest set at Woodstock, by most accounts, the ensemble was atrociously poor, the length of its set being due to its refusal to leave the stage; Detective Zachary Nichols, of the NYPD Major Case Squad, himself also a musician whose own instrument is piano and, by extension, other kinds of keyboard instruments, has said that "Speckled Stallion always left its audiences wanting less!"

In 2009, Morrison, by then a failing talent agent who was moonlighting as a landlord to pay the bills, again made headlines when two of his artists, Theodore Kenright and Rafe Shaver, were both killed within a week of each other. Shaver's death was later attributed to one of his rivals, but Kenright's murder was determined to have been Morrison's work. Despite the publicity that his crimes have attracted, there has been no talk of a Speckled Stallion reunion, which is probably much to the relief of everyone in the music industry. (CI: "Rock Star")
