Now I've got this stuck in my head and I can't get anywhere with it:
In another song, by another band, is a line that goes something like "a little band called Treat Her Right" - can any of you music buffs tell me what the song and/or band is?
I never knew til just now who the "little band" really was!
But now it's driving me crazy 'cuz I can't remember the rest of the tune. Help?    |

My thoughts exactly.
Then I read through this thread and ... now I am very sad. I had no idea Mark was gone.
I love Morphine since finding them on RP - actually went out a bought a CD (Like Swimming). Thanks to RP, I have found a number of gems that I previously had no idea existed.

I'm familiar with it from L.A. radio years back, so yeah, it went nationwide.
Good song, nice to hear it again.

Treat Her Right was always one of my favorites. I can't remember where I first heard them but I know it was around 1987. "You Don't Need Money" is also a great tune. Love to crank the volume with that harmonica.
Good Show Bill! Kudos!

Same Guy. May he rest in peace. A sad loss. morphine was one of the best small club shows I ever saw. Right here in Sunny Steamburg Falls.
A highly enlighthen choice by the way. Not many people know of the pre-morphine Sandman. |

I love the concept of breaking two glass walls in this song - the one between the singer and the object, and the second between the singer and the audience. . .
It adds to the spooky effectiveness of his voice and the laconic tone of the arrangement. . .

The harp saves this one.
Baby please don't go. Baby please don't go. Down to County farm. Baby please don't go. (Ooops . Sorry. Wrong song)

Mark Sandman wrote another "jealous husband" themed song while in Morphine, called "Thursday" - it's worth a listen.

I would recognize Mark Sandman's voice anywhere. Nice song, but I LOVE (and slightly prefer) that Morphine sound (miss the bari sax)....
