The Other Side

About

Dana Colley's baritone sax solo is the sole improvisation on this recording. Set in a rock feel at 251 BPM, the solo operates within a framework far removed from conventional jazz improvisation. "The Other Side" from Morphine's 1992 debut album Good features a baritone saxophone solo from Dana Colley that exemplifies the band's signature dark, propulsive sound. Recorded for the album Good in 1992, the performance captures Dana Colley at 30 to 31 years old. Set in D minor at 251 BPM with a driving rock feel, the track co-composed by Mark Sandman and Colley showcases the urgent energy that made Morphine's live performances legendary.

Dana Colley was 30 to 31 years old at the time.
