I use this one and it has a good 60 odd pages of introduction and context to both.
A good ASC is Ingram/Giles which isn't modern but is still very good and is a sort of default ASC. If you can afford the upgrade, then Dorothy Whitelock's version is very good but very expensive. Michael Swanton has a new version with new translation which I thought I had ordered but apparently not, so I can't comment on that yet (but read the Amazon comments- the formatting might be not to your taste).
