Morning Better Last! is an album by indie rock band Dirty Projectors. It is a compilation of three tapes recorded by Dave Longstreth that were given to friends of his. These tapes were:

"Nile Yessum" / "Picknum Deduns" / "Pickenham Dedonshire"
"Brother Had A Birthday" / "Live At Sam's" / "The Glad Fact Testimonial"
"Three Brown Finches" / "Obscure Wisdom EP" / "Seven Songs That Owe A Lot To Zep III".

These were recorded and distributed in 2001 and 2002. The songs vary exceedingly, unlike the songs on then unreleased concept album The Getty Address. In 2003, Morning Better Last! was released by States Rights Records on CD-R and as a digital download from iTunes.
