| | Description: | Modern Classic Recordings, an imprint of Light in the Attic Records, proudly announces the deluxe vinyl reissues of Morphine??s final two studio albums: Like Swimming (1997) and The Night (2000), marking the very first availability of both titles on wax.
Each album has been lovingly remastered by Pete Weiss at Boston??s Jade Cow Music, with lacquers cut by John Golden. Both titles were pressed at Austin, TX??s Gold Rush Vinyl and are each available in two colorways. The 1xLP Like Swimming (which features such favorites as ??Early to Bed,? ??French Fries with Pepper,? and ??Eleven O??Clock?) can be found on opaque blue or translucent red wax, while the 2xLP, 45-RPM edition of The Night (featuring ??Rope on Fire,? ??Top Floor, Bottom Buzzer,? and ??The Night,?) is available on orange translucent or purplish hue vinyl.
Rounding out each package is a 20-page booklet, featuring rare and never-before-seen images from the band??s archives, including photos by Lana Z. Caplan and Danny Clinch, artifacts from Morphine??s career, and unseen art by the band??s late frontman, Mark Sandman. A major highlight of both packages are the insightful new liner notes by Ryan H. Walsh??a Boston-based journalist, musician, visual artist, and author of the acclaimed 2018 book Astral Weeks: A Secret History of 1968. Walsh??s notes include a handful of new interviews detailing the band??s career, including one of the final interviews with Morphine drummer Billy Conway, who sadly passed away in 2021 following a battle with cancer. Both albums are housed in deluxe gatefold jackets, featuring gorgeous art direction and design by Darryl Norsen at D. Norsen Design, also of Boston.
Dedicated to the memories of Sandman and late drummer Billy Conway, both albums were produced with the full support of Morphine??s surviving members (drummer Jerome Deupree and saxophonist Dana Colley), as well as the band??s friends, family members, and collaborators??many of whom shared their memories with Walsh. - 180GR. PURPLISH HUE VINYLHoused in gatefold sleeve with OBI style spine cover, includes 20 page booklet (lyrics, photos, ephemera, artwork by Mark Sandman, liner notes, and credits). Inner sleeves printed Light In The Attic advertising. Experience the haunting allure of Morphine?s final studio album, "THE NIGHT," now available on 180g purple vinyl in LP format. Released posthumously after frontman Mark Sandman's untimely passing, this record stands as a testament to the band's innovative blend of jazz, blues, and alternative rock. With its deep grooves and atmospheric soundscapes, "THE NIGHT" showcases Morphine's signature two-string slide bass and baritone saxophone-driven arrangements. The album features standout tracks like ?The Night? and ?Rope on Fire,? highlighting the band?s evolution while maintaining their unmistakable style.
Morphine emerged from Boston in the early 1990s and quickly gained critical acclaim for their unique instrumentation and noir-inspired songwriting. Their albums such as "Cure for Pain" achieved cult status worldwide, influencing countless artists across genres.
Modern Classics Recordings / Cargo is renowned for reissuing iconic albums with exceptional attention to detail and quality. Their releases are highly sought after by audiophiles who appreciate both fidelity and collectible packaging?making this edition of "THE NIGHT" an essential addition to any serious music collection. | | | Manufacturer No.: |
