Free Music Notes for Bootleg Detroit
Free Music Review: Live Morphine, of course it's good...
Hit: 5 Stars
If you're considering this album, you're probably already familiar with Morphine and have some of their stuff. "Bootleg Detroit" provides a glimpse into their live show, and yeah, the sound quality isn't the greatest, that's why "bootleg" is in the title. Apparently some people (see rorscach12's review below) are too slow to get that. and the fact that stage "banter" is included is part of what makes this release cool, some people don't get that either (see same simpleminded review below). for those who never got to see them live, it's interesting to hear that part of a live show. plus there's material (Come Along) you won't hear on any other releases. if you're a Morphine fan, should probably get it, if you're just getting into them, pick up another studio album first.
Bootleg Detroit Poster
Not only is Bootleg Detroit an aptly named live album, it's also an atypical one. For this, "the only official live release of Morphine," Rykodisc has released a low-fidelity recording made by an audience member during the band's Cure for Pain tour in 1994. Although the recording was mastered by frontman Mark Sandman before his onstage death in 1999, the sound quality never rises above that of your average bootleg. The drum sound echoes, and the baritone sax and bass are muddy. However, Sandman's dry voice shines through fairly well. The total package is somewhat voyeuristic, as if Bootleg Detroit were meant to sound like putting an ear up against the outside of a theater. For those who never got the chance to see Morphine's amazing live show, this is, sadly, as close as one can get. Yet even under the aural murk, the band's sexy and sulky low rock is spellbinding. --Jason JosephesAlternative Rock Music CDs
