A 2 string bass, a couple cymbals, a snare, a bass and a floor tom, 2 tenor saxes and more talent than ten million current "artists". I miss these guys a lot man.......
My mom died my junior year of high school and because I walked to school I remember I would put CD’s in my backpack so I could listen to music on the way. I always had Good, Cure for Pain and The Night in there. That was an awfully lonesome school year.
My favorite part of this video is the isolated snare pops at 2:45 .. that is badass. I like how they break it down completely and build it all back up, and that's the moment it all hinges on.
This vid is a great document to understand that even the best musicians can fail. Mark was a man who was not frightened to take some risks. Changing the tuning of a bass on stage is one ;)
Thanks for uploading this video !! I owned a copy but sadly lost the videotape....... This is for the greatest band ever, MORPHINE !!!! Mark, I salute you, and thank you for your great music legacy.
The high pitched noise that I can detect emanating from old TV sets was captured perfectly in this recording...although when I turn up the volume it absolutely is unbearable....love Morphine band though.
@@Weaselthebassist If im not mistaken the super high frequency are the first to start to be able to not hear. They made a ringtone for phones that was so high supposedly teachers couldn't hear it lol but you can test the sound on youtube I think there are videos of it if you are curious
@@StewBedazzle I don't have an eardrum in my left ear (it has a huge hole in it), so in that ear I struggle a lot with low frequency sounds. But I've always listened to loud music and I'm quite an old bloke now so my hearings deteriorated now. I love Morphine regardless. 😆
@ajas95 I don't know what I like better. Mark Sandman playing that slide bass or when he's palm muting it and you hear that "thumping" sound. That guy was AMAZING!
If someone knows how to put this same video, but without that buzzing in TH-cam,, please do that I beg. It hurts ears when listening with headphones full. This is art
I don't know Morphine well enough to tell you, but he certainly could've. Tuning in 5ths allowed him to play in major or minor keys equally, whereas if he tuned in 3rds, you'd have to choose either major or minor. Its much more versatile. From what I have heard of Morphine (I only own 2 albums), its mostly 5ths.

2 tenor saxes? baritone + tenor
Amen
Smashing Pumpkins opened up for them at this show.
Indeed 😊
Love how Mark casually started from the middle verse then corrected himself on the fly and just didn't give a shit

Amazing how you connect certain songs with bad times in your life like break ups or deaths.
When two worlds collide - no one survives , No one survives -- I love this tune and morphine - rip mark - uda man
Two chords, infinite feelings. I love you, Morphine.

Unique band, thats why I can play any song and enjoy it like the first time. Mark Sandman was a true genius.
RIP Billy Conway ❤
Listening to Morphine on morphine
dima graur morphine sulfate oral solution sucks... so I hope it isn't that.
drowned by slobber
Never heard of this band until yesterday and im hooked 😍
Oh, they were so great, and some of the best musical talents of the time morphed thru, into, and around that bonfire, still a few today

if playing of key was a contest
you guys won the match
The simple fact that this band is so underrated is proof that the phonographic industry sometimes sucks! Sandman lives!
This bass..
Etched in my bones
One of the greatest songs ever written
And, this is a humdinger if you’ve sung it 100x yourself driving at night
thanks for making this.... i listen every day. it NEVER gets old. well done.
2 strings, open-tuned in 5ths, so he can essentially play mini chords with the slide on his left hand.
At the moment I type this, 0 people dislike this video. That gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside =)

Thanks!
It's an amazing song!
my inspiration.......
I have DREAMS of playing a beritone saxaphone AND a 2-string slide bass guitar...
It dosen't get much more stripped down than this. Such a fat sound coming outta that Sax! Gave me goose bumps So Cool Thanks for sharing
The high pitched noise that I can detect emanating from old TV sets was captured perfectly in this recording...although when I turn up the volume it absolutely is unbearable....love Morphine band though.
My hearings so bad I can barely sense it. Guess I'm blessed in a way.

De eerste x dat ik ze zag en hoorde!
Lol, gotta love morphine, a new version of all of their songs pop up every day it seems, and they are all classy in their own way.
🔥❤️🔥
Respekt ....

MOTHERFUCKING GENIAL!!!
Motherfuckin', fuckin' GENIUS!!! :)
Yes, Mark. Give it to the mic.
Morphine - Buena :)
RIP and sorry that your brother passed when you were so young.
this is the reason I wanna learn to play the saxaphone.
thank you.
this makes sense.
did mark use any other tunings?
I remind you that there is an album called DARK SIDE OF THE MOON!!!

Les Claypool was a huge fan of Mark Sandman.
@pigfarts992 It's a Premier of some type. They're not common, I've never seen one on eBay although I don't look often. A company makes reissues.
Dire Straits had a sax player on various live shows and some sax arrangements in many songs
@pigfarts992 BTW, Mark replaced the stock pickups with one split Fender P Bass pup.

Man i feel horrible when i see my bass have 4 strings
Que grande el batigol tocando el saxo
What kind of bass did Mark play? It looks sexy.
buena loco0o0o0o0o0
@101Volts Oh. I think I've heard of one, but maybe that's just my imagination. Anyhow, nice friggin' bass and unbelieveable sound.
@101Volts Nice :D
Yes, in the beginning. But as he is the only oone playing, he cant really be in or off tune, its an intro made by him...
The Smashing Pumpkins played their set right before Morphine at this festival.
I gotta point this out, he opens with the wrong lyric and you can see him switch back. He switched soo fast I thought it was a cut at first.

What's up with the 2-sting bass he plays? Is there a reason behind that?
Yes. By limiting himself he opened up a world of possibilities. A true visionary on his instrument and as a song writer.
also it is messy to play with a slide on a 4-string bass. Much easier on 2 strings
Ity's called Buena, from cure for pain
Just wondering, but what do you feel this recording lacks?
passion
more 2 string bass and perhaps cowbell
Those people need to listen to Traffic, as well.
Who the hell says that o.0
Too much analysis, not enough absorption...
Thank you.
flojas desafinaciones por momentos
aguante morpine igual
Morphine in vain
he's so out of tune, it's difficullt to recognize this song
No it's not. Maybe you should have that checked.
visiorocky YouSir are a clown!
youve obviously never played slide on a stage
He def is out of tune
He is not... it's called playing with a slide
really off tune, he looks like he's coming off a lot of drugs and hasn't eaten.
