Charlie Morgan (born John Charles Morgan, 9 August 1955, Hammersmith, London, England) is an English drummer and percussionist.
In 1985 his drumming work with Nik Kershaw attracted the attention of Elton John,[1] who booked him to play on his Ice on Fire album. Later that year John invited him to play with his band at Live Aid. This was the start of a thirteen year period of recording and touring with John.[1]
Morgan co-wrote the theme music to the ITV TV series, The Bill, with bassist Andy Pask.
