Hypnosonics - Someone Stole My Shoes: Beyond The Q Division Sessions LP or CD

Описание: 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. Playing guitar
and organ as well as singing, Mark was joined by members of the large
jazz ensemble Either/Orchestra, with whom he was also collaborating at
that time, for the funkiest excursions of his diverse career. An edition of
the band which included future founding drummer of Morphine, Jerome
Deupree, and future bassist/leader of Club d’Elf, Mike Rivard, recorded
five songs at Q Division Studio in Boston in 1989, contained herein. These
tracks are supplemented by two more from the 1996 edition of the group,
by which time Morphine’s Dana Colley had joined the horn section of
trumpeter Tom Halter and saxman Russ Gershon. The early history of the
band is detailed within this LP package in notes penned by Gershon.
