Morphine - What a great band. I saw them maybe 3 months before Mark's death. They are amazingly talented. Mark Sandman played two saxes at once! The two surviving members, Dana and...(the other name escapes me) are in a band w/ a female singer, not as good but similar, called Twinemen. They played an instore performance a year and a half ago at the now defuct record store, NYCD in Manhatta...

This might be old news but Morphine is a band that I've liked for a long time and they really have one of the more unqiue sounds in rock music - or did prior to Mark Sandman's death in 1999.
