[youtube yP8QhblSkRI] Morphine has become somewhat of a legend since mysterious frontman Mark Sandman died onstage at a relatively early age in 1999. They have been dubbed with creating ‘low rock’, but really what they did as a band is make jazz more accessible to a general audience; specifically garnering high marks with the independent/alternative rock community of the 90s. Although their music sounds nothing like most of the 90s alternative rock, they were more closely followed by the alt-rockers than the jazz fans.
’Buena’ is the first song from their second album, 1993’s ‘Cure for Pain’. It is a good example of their unique sound, featuring Mark Sandman playing slide-bass, Dana Colley on sax and Jerome Deupree on drums.
