Modern Classic Recordings, an imprint of Light in the Attic Records, proudly announces the deluxe vinyl reissues of Morphine's final two studio albums: _Like Swimming_ (1997) and _The Night_ (2000), marking the very first availability of both titles on wax. Each album has been lovingly remastered by Pete Weiss at Boston's Jade Cow Music, with lacquers cut by John Golden. Both titles were pressed at Austin, TX's Gold Rush Vinyl and are each available in two colorways.
The 1xLP _Like Swimming_ (which features such favorites as "Early to Bed, " "French Fries with Pepper, " and "Eleven O'Clock") can be found on opaque blue or translucent red wax, while the 2xLP, 45-RPM edition of _The Night_ (featuring "Rope on Fire, " "Top Floor, Bottom Buzzer, " and "The Night, ") is available on orange translucent or purplish hue vinyl. Rounding out each package is a 20-page booklet, featuring rare and never-before-seen images from the band's archives, including photos by Lana Z. Caplan and Danny Clinch, artifacts from Morphine's career, and unseen art by the band's late frontman, Mark Sandman. A major highlight of both packages are the insightful new liner notes by Ryan H. Walsh-a Boston-based journalist, musician, visual artist, and author of the acclaimed 2018 book _Astral Weeks: A Secret History of 1968.
