Good
Sealed 2021 180gm Reissue From Music On Vinyl. "While It May Not Be As Stellar As Their Future Releases Would Be, Morphine's Debut Album, 1992's Good, Did A Splendid Job Of Introducing The Boston Trio's Highly Original Sound. While It Was The Alternative Crowd Who Immediately Latched Onto Morphine, Their Music Was Geared More Toward The Jazz Scene -- A Wailing Saxophone, Lead Bass (Played With A Slide), And Lyrics Influenced By '50s Beat Poetry Were All-Important Ingredients. The Opening Title Track Remains One Of The Band's Darkest, While Other Selections Are A Bit More Upbeat -- "Have A Lucky Day" And The Inappropriately Titled "The Saddest Song"; All The While, The Band Excels At Creating Different Moods With Each Successive Track. Other Highlights Include The Mid-paced "Claire" And "The Only One," The Slight Salsa Feel Of "You Speak My Language," The Frantic "Test-Tube Baby/Shoot'm Down," And The More Calm And Sultry "You Look Like Rain." On Their Next Release, Cure For Pain, Morphine Would Improve Further On The Strength Of Their Songwriting And Cutting-edge Sound, But Good Still Contains More Than A Few Standouts."
