Sandbox: The Music of Mark Sandman

I just found about this release today and I'm so happy to have it. I listened to it this morning and while I was listening I felt like I was getting a much broader sense of Mark Sandman's musical personality. There are some great quirky and unusual tracks here much like 1997's B-sides and Otherwise but it also seems to include a variety of random recordings from different times in Sandman's career.

This is definitely not for the casual fan but very worthwhile for any hardcore Morphine fan. I just really appreciate having new songs to hear Mark Sandman sing. I miss his voice! Morphine will remain one of my all-time favorite bands.

Kudos to Dana Colley and Billy Conway for getting this collection out.
