    The brilliance of this Man comes from his ability to be absolutely present within his music as he performs it. In this clip, he's up there having a great time relating to the same lyrics he must have sung a thousand times. No two versions would sound exactly the same because, in the space he's created within his music, he responds in the moment to the energy he feels within himself, from the audience and from musicians around him. Truly gifted.

    Followed Van Morrison for 50 years, but lately, I realize I did not fully know him, or know the depth of not just his singing...but everything concerning him. He's so much more, so much..not even sure if there is a word in the worlds language to even fully describe him, it has to be a word from above.

      I love Sir Van Morrison he is one of the few legends that I have to say his voice gets better with age don't get me wrong his vocal delivery as a young man on every level that you can evaluate a singer was amazing but this man just continues to blow my mind not just as a singer but also as songwriter and as a musician I've always felt that Van at least in America is a bit underrated

      @johnfulton4061 2 года назад +2

      He knocks me out I love him he has a new cd coming out this March of skiffle music but he's infusing some blues into it something that Van has in common with another one of my favorite artists Dolly Parton is that he is a senior that puts these young artists to SHAME neither one of them are resting on their laurels and cosistantly put out amazing work and do great things on regular basis

    One of the truly iconic musicians of his era. Transcends simple genre descriptions much like Ray Charles does. A serious part of the soundtrack of my life, both of them. The High Priest now rests in peace; Van is *still* keeping on keeping on. Deepest thanks and respect to both.

    I've been fortunate to have seen Van many times over the years, but these two nights, November 7 & 8 2008, were exceptional, Van and his band delivered two magnificent shows. I sat in the 3rd row the first night, and the 1st row on the second, seeing him perform Astral weeks up close was worth the 3500 mile journey from Minneapolis.
