God Damn I miss you guys! I cried the day I found out that mark passed. It was the day I bought The Night, that album torn me up and healed me all in the same.
"The Only One" - what a sublimely beautiful song. This guy had such an amazing way of saying things, I can't think of anyone that comes close, Mr Sandman, you are one of my all time heroes, I can never get enough of your music. Thank you.
sublimely beautiful in content and gesture, old school sound done in a way that will feel forever fresh and never dated to millions who have yet to even hear it... This is music for musicians and people who can feel.
Being near Boston as they garnered attention around the globe was truly thrilling, especially since one knew how much Sandman had worked in the music scene already. Remarkable talents all.
I've always wondered what the f**** happened on march 4th,1982? awesome band, they had this unique sound, and sandman bass lines were so mystical and moody, they just kicked my ass from the first listen.
nothing that i gotta do/gotta get it to the bank. lol still the best band of all time, and this performance is rather rare. these guys never did a bad song and i will love them forever. thank you, behind007.
Loved this group, almost like a throwback to 50s era rock, not that I was alive then ;-) And these two songs, man.. I don't think I could possibly list my favorite Morphine jams, much less in order. But -if- I did have a list, these two would certainly make it. Thanks for the awesome upload behind007!

When i first heard about the band...just a guitar, drums and sax i thought that was different but I had no idea how Killer morphine was...The sandman had such a sultry voice..
Well you don't see a double sax player too often! In fact, this is the third one I've seen, the first two being Van der Graaf Generator's David Jackson, and, of course, Roland Kirk, who could even play three, if I recall correctly... Anyway, it's great to see a band that has an original style and even greater to see one that plays sincere music!
You tell me that your hungry and you wanna stop and eat/ well if it was up to me/ we wouldn't even stop to eat/ you ask me: 'hey what happened to you where's your handsom smile?'/ I say its back be behind me, back about a hundred miles.
two people are allergic to morphine.My buddy and I saw them in 98' @ horde fest, we were on shrooms and I do believe it was the most beautiful musical experience I've ever had!
@joynthis Dude! I agree with that. They do not get credit for how heavy they were. Listen to A Good Woman Is Hard to Find on your stereo with the volume on 10 and tell me another band that fills in the bottom end like Morphine does..........ok.....maybe........MAYBE!......Master Of Reality era Black Sabbath, and that's saying something.
@AwwwMuadDib Two of the most original and ground breaking bands of the 90's and IMO of all time. They don't get enough credit. It seems the critics want to suck Radiohead's collective ***** and ramble on about Nirvana, Pearl Jam, My Bloody Valentine and Pavement like they owned the '90's, and while I love (Some of) those bands too (Loveless is one of the best albums of all time IMO), I despise the fact that those same critics don't give bands like Morphine or Primus the credit they deserve.
Was it really at a TV show? I remember being in a french radio show where Morphine performed these songs. Might be this one? Taj Mahal was also part of the show. Anyway, thanks a lot for sharing! Reminds me of this great band that I was lucky to see live a lot of times,
This is actually better than the version on "Yes" (and that's stupendous). Somebody needs to release a collection of stuff like this with better sound. How come "Sandbox" didn't do that?
"All the time in the world", Marky boy??? That didn't prove to be true, did it? Nonetheless, Sandman and his denizons of the deep were innovators, and Colley was king on the double-duty thing (well, next to Jeff Coffin) Actually, I still enjoy this dark, despondent stuff ....when the mood strikes
My baritone is a Conn 1933
my tenor is a Selmer Mark 6 1969
holy fuck... congratulations on all your work, amazing musician you are.
God Damn I miss you guys! I cried the day I found out that mark passed. It was the day I bought The Night, that album torn me up and healed me all in the same.
Holy shit! I have so many questions and not one way to ask
THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING !
That's stamina.
two saxaphones at once, I think Dana might just be a legend that shouldn't be forgotten
GamesULove Rolland Kirk
he's like roland kirk!
Rahsaan Roland Kirk did it first, moron
Amen
Each artist alone in Morphine is a star, but together they are a supernova
This band is unreal
"The Only One" - what a sublimely beautiful song. This guy had such an amazing way of saying things, I can't think of anyone that comes close, Mr Sandman, you are one of my all time heroes, I can never get enough of your music. Thank you.
Fully Agree
Del Spence His lyrics were often blunt and simply said, yes?
"Your version of success is different from the rest"
First Video i saw from them. Since then,i have been a Morphine-addict.
The bass sounds like it is crying in a good way on only one.
Mark's intelligence shines through...
sublimely beautiful in content and gesture, old school sound done in a way that will feel forever fresh and never dated to millions who have yet to even hear it... This is music for musicians and people who can feel.
They were just as awesome live as they were on their albums.
Insane, these guys were really on a completely different level..........
Being near Boston as they garnered attention around the globe was truly thrilling, especially since one knew how much Sandman had worked in the music scene already. Remarkable talents all.
They were just way too fucking good.
13 years after I saw the footage of Morphine at Glastonbury I STILL marvel at the 2 sax trick!
Mark Sandman RIP
You guys are the best band I have ever seen.
The best trio from Boston. What an acid music!!
makes you wonder what happened on march 4, 1982
March 4 '82 was within a week or two of when I first met Mark. I lived across the street.
OH... MY... GOD... Morphine, I bow down!
Thank you behind007 for making a grown man cry
:P
Morphine rules. Dana's double-sax is amazing.
"I got all the time in the world. To spare."
I think he knew better. That was chilling.
Jesus god that was good. I've never even heard "The Only One" before. That was fantastic.
un-fricking believable!!! To bad they are gone.
Saw them in a hellhole bar in Dallas. This is a great example of how HEAVY they were live.
One of my favorite bands ever!
OH my God.....I get to see the greatest band ever, live now. Thank You Thank You Thank You!!!!!!
Gigantes! Superbly fantastic, these guys were innovators. Saudações do Brasil!
I love Love LOVE this band!
I've always wondered what the f**** happened on march 4th,1982? awesome band, they had this unique sound, and sandman bass lines were so mystical and moody, they just kicked my ass from the first listen.
..MARAVILLOSOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very gifted musicians
He makes that bass cry
WOW ! Thank you for this !
UHHH! Curti demais!! Eu tinha o disco Yes!
PERFECT!!!
Absolutely BADASS!
This sound!!! Amaaaaaaazing.
The double saxophone of Dana Colley is what first got me interested in Morphine...the rest is history.
nothing that i gotta do/gotta get it to the bank. lol
still the best band of all time, and this performance is rather rare. these guys never did a bad song and i will love them forever. thank you, behind007.

Now I am pretty sure: I saw the video one more time and saw a "Europe 1" banner.
It was a show presented by Marc Toesca, I was there!!!
Alguna apuesta que suba éste nivel.. Vamos... Perfecta banda para mis oídos... Lo cual no significa que sea la mejor... Aúpa esos morphine!!
When i first heard about the band...just a guitar, drums and sax i thought that was different but I had no idea how Killer morphine was...The sandman had such a sultry voice..
Thanks! thanks! thanks! for sharing these videos
absolutely amazing! they're better live than in records!
Sure miss this great band. You are the only one, Mark.
Brilliant! Love Dana Colley's gruff sound!
the sax player is sedate no skerik
thanks next time I'll set my self on fire
-dana colley
Too funny. lol
DUDE ! You set US on fire ...Or lulled us into a warm bath
Bombastic trio
I dream to see them live
So cool, great band.
Radar the one..........................................................................................,........................................
THX A lot!!! Love them!
Awesome, awesomem, awesome...
Killer performance! Thanks!
thanks for posting this... it's great live performance. david, tbilisi
Fuckin love me some Morphine.

Anyway, it's great to see a band that has an original style and even greater to see one that plays sincere music!
I saw Rahsaan live and he played 3 saxes and a nose flute and with his circular breathing technique, he could create a tapestry of sound.
You tell me that your hungry and you wanna stop and eat/ well if it was up to me/ we wouldn't even stop to eat/ you ask me: 'hey what happened to you where's your handsom smile?'/ I say its back be behind me, back about a hundred miles.
I heard Rhino records owns the Morphine catalog now. Write to them and bug them. There have to be mountains of great unreleased Morphine songs!
Mark is beautiful af
You Couldn't Trade My Radar
i cant feel anything.
it must be working.
awesome.
two people are allergic to morphine.My buddy and I saw them in 98' @ horde fest, we were on shrooms and I do believe it was the most beautiful musical experience I've ever had!
Que musicasos del carajo!
@joynthis Dude! I agree with that. They do not get credit for how heavy they were.

Check that, google tells me it was on Good?? They must have changed it up a lot, because it really seems like I would remember it!
@cinemarveler he got what everyone gets, he got a lifetime.
ПРОСТО КАЙФ
They are Gods
One Tenor in his left hand, one Baritone in his right hand ;)
I always assumed March 4, 1982 was the day he got caught cheating with a married woman, as the lyrics to Thursday say.
I don't know, that sounds good though.
Morphine is the really diffirent band..
@kristofor12345 The song Radar is from the "Yes" album.
the only one!
you-are-the-only-one
@AwwwMuadDib Two of the most original and ground breaking bands of the 90's and IMO of all time. They don't get enough credit.

Sonzera! :D :D :D

Taj Mahal was also part of the show.
Anyway, thanks a lot for sharing! Reminds me of this great band that I was lucky to see live a lot of times,
double sax wowzzza
I'm sad about that too, But everything happens for a reason i guess.
To me, Tenor for the solo. But there are also baritone and tenor in the mix behind.
@billyjustice1 Lucky you :) Must have been great !
which microphone he uses? that one on the left.. it has an awesome vintage sound...
it's called a bullet mic. i think designed for harmonicas. les claypool uses one these days with a "sandman" sticker on it
Thanks for the info, but does anyone know what his tenor is?
If God existed Mark Sandman would still be with us :(
Ive never seen someone play two saxophones.
This is actually better than the version on "Yes" (and that's stupendous). Somebody needs to release a collection of stuff like this with better sound. How come "Sandbox" didn't do that?
@nuclear944 buscher con for his bari don't remember the year
Does anyone know the model of Dana Colley's saxophones?
The bari was a Conn the tenor a Selmer Mark VI
Dirty, Gritty, Sexy 🖤🖤 and sweet God dam beautiful sound🖤🇩🇪
... and here I always thought they overdubbed the saxes.
Fuck me.
"Type PRIZE before youtube and hit enter
"All the time in the world", Marky boy??? That didn't prove to be true, did it? Nonetheless, Sandman and his denizons of the deep were innovators, and Colley was king on the double-duty thing (well, next to Jeff Coffin)
Actually, I still enjoy this dark, despondent stuff ....when the mood strikes
What album is Radar from?
"Yes" album
TWO SAXOPHONES AT ONCE????? wow
Wtf is happening with horns???.....my ears won't be the same .....ever
why did Mark Sandman have to leave us?
:(
Only 1 like?
