What to say about Morphine to a person that don't know them? Well first forget Rock and Roll as you know it, put some deep voice covered with honey and a marvelous sax going through the songs as if it was a normal thing in modern rock, yet so delightful and deep. How the hell 3 guys can do such an atmosphere that gets you immersed into a velvet kind of feeling? A bass with 3 strings, a sax and a drum set, and all the musics are different, that's how. Beautiful velvet rock songs all over the album, what more can you expect?

Mark Sandman - 2-string slide bass, vocals, organ, guitar, tritar
Dana Colley - baritone sax, tenor sax, double sax, triangle
Jerome Dupree - percussion
Billy Conway - percussion (tracks 5 & 6)
