Live Recordings from Mark Sandman's "Secret Band" on Vinyl LP!
Includes 3 Songs That Became Eventual Morphine Cuts!
More lost recordings from Mark Sandman's archives! Two lost shows from the Hypnosonics! Culled from a rare NYC show and legendary Boston gig, this LP unveils three new Mark Sandman songs that became eventual Morphine cuts served up by his "secret band." A rare NYC show and a legendary Boston gig, rival for space in your player!
"There was so much sexuality oozing out of those songs but also humor... a lot of wry dry wit and downright silliness. Super sophisticated silliness and all of it transportive, ecstatic, transcendent. There was nothing quite like seeing Hypnosonics and all of us in the audience knew it. We knew this was some pure sonic magic and we were totally hypnotized." – Margaret Garrett (Mr. Airplane Man)
In 1986, while Mark Sandman was still touring with his first major label band, Treat Her Right, and before he convened the now-mythical Morphine, he assembled what is often referred to as his "secret band." Hypnosonics remained a favorite side project, and performed for the last time two weeks before Sandman's death in 1999.
