Recorded: 1995 Released: 1995
This is the 23rd studio album by legendary Northern Irish singer / songwriter Van MorrisonFind albums by this artist, who is accompanied by a splendid group of musicians, which includes guitarist Ronnie JohnsonFind albums by this artist, bassist Nicky ScottFind albums by this artist, drummer Geoff DunnFind albums by this artist and a brass section with saxophonist Pee Wee EllisFind albums by this artist, trumpeter Matthew HollandFind albums by this artist and others. The album presents twelve tracks, ten of which are originals by Morrison and two are his adaptations of songs by other songwriters.
Musically the album offers a mix of Blues, Folk, Gospel and Celtic, but, as always, it is a mixture of cross-genre songs, all blessed by Morrison’s outstanding ability to weave beautiful melodies and write heartfelt lyrics, like only a few others Artists are able to do. There is also a slight jazz touch in the background, which characterizes everything Morrison recorded.
Overall, this is a piece of music that is worth being remembered, and although Morrison’s recorded legacy offers a few dozen releases, he never recorded a bad album and everything he ever put out is worth an honorable place in a decent record collection. It is one of those Artists you can never have too much of…
