Van Morrison created his own genre. He sounds like nobody else and nobody else sounds like him . The way he has taken so many different influences and musical styles and molded them into a genre that only he exists in is unparalleled.
GREAT assessment 👏!!!!!!! Van is buried in talent and breathes musical genius.

I agree.
A Complete original. And he always had the greatest bands to match his ever-changing arrangements and style.
Van’s sound, voice and phrasing is completely unique.
@@neasabrennan
More saxophone like in tone and phrasing than a standard rock vocalist.
He is a creative genius. I can accept him for who he is. His music is beyond compare in depth and originality.
They broke the mold after Van was born. Been listening and thoroughly enjoying for 50+ years. Screw the critics.Thank you Van!!
Van Morrison is a LEGEND!! My mom was murdered in 2006 when I was 19...Van Morrison was her all time favorite musician.
Since she passed my sister and I have had so many bizarre experiences with Van Morrison songs coming on randomly at the strangest times in the strangest places. We believe that's one of the ways she is communicating from heaven.
I'm fulfilling a lifelong dream of seeing him LIVE next week and I feel so blessed and thrilled!!!
I can only imagine but a room full of spirit-filled Van fans is going to be the most excellent energy to soak in as we experience this music master bring us into heavenly dimensions!!
Ya gotta love this music... with Van, it is great. He always gives you happiness ~ even his sad songs have hint of happiness. Wavelength is a masterpiece.
Sir George Ivan Morrison is the is simply a unique beautiful soul 🍀
Poetic Champions compose is another under appreciated master piece very beautiful and sophisticated arrangements
Van's incredible run from Astral Weeks (1968) to Hymns to the Silence (1991) is unparalleled in rock history.
1964!!!! Them
Hear hear!
That album Hymns to Silence was just brilliant and underrated in my opinion
Although Astral Weeks is my favourite album I also love Common One, Beautiful Vision and Inarticulate Speech.. what a trio of spiritual albums.
I fell in love with VAn after "Here Comes the Night", stayed with him thru Gloria, Brown eyed Girl. Then when I got discharged from the Navy Moondance. I never noticed any Hiatus. We wore his albums out at my house andduring many long partying evenings.Astral Weeks was the one that really touched me.But he was always Van.
Such a treasure to be treasured.
I love you Van Morrison. Stay Safe and Stay Strong.
Van Morrison is truly a glorious gorgeous man!
Van levitates ... he really really wants you to hear every note, layer and word, people moan about him liking them to be quiet, well what do they expect?.
Go on for ever Van, you levitate , you glide, you are effortless & timeless. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
He wants people to get into the music the way he does he also wants people to be quiet so they don't disturb his own listening experience. Because he loves to listen to his own bands instrumental work
@@adamwatson6916 Very much so , it's not unknown for Van to spend days in studio on a tiny detail that even a little noise would drown out at a show.
I respect him for that dedication and hopefully I'll get to see him live, at least one more time 🙏👍
Interesting! Veedon Fleece is my favourite Van Morrison album. Exceptional songs and playing.
MOON DANCE IS CLASS ❤️🇬🇧
After all the beautiful music, it must be remembered that Morrison grew up a tough Belfast street kid who fortunately found his way into music. As an American I visited Belfast and that place was no joke in the 50s 60s 70s. It was a rough enviornment and must have had aprofoundeffect on the development of Morrison's personality.
Common one is another one of my favorites. All of my favorites happen to be all of his albums that became classics years latter that were not given their due at the time of their initial release . Astral weeks Veedon Fleece A period of Transition and common one are my favorites. It was the performances of the common one material live at Montreux 1980 that turned me onto common one . The live performance of spirit at Montreux 1980 still blows my mind every time I hear it. The instruments work is mind blowing
Love The humanness of the Blues/Soul man Van Morrison. He makes me smile. Great collaborations with other artists. Thank you for posting this. Yes, you feel the artistry of Van. 💚🎶🍀
Astral Weeks still belongs to the best albums ever recorded.
Take care Belfast Cowboy.
Astral Weeks
One of the all time Top ten - records !!
@@malegrissusran8847 There was a time I stood up almost every morning with "Sweet thing".
Made me feel good.
G.O.A.T. Rave on Van The Man 🍀🍀💚💚
He has always been a but if a contrarian but he has magic flowing through his veins that I doubt he even knows where it comes from...brilliant, thank you Van. all love
A period of transition is one of my favorite albums and is an under appreciated album. I discovered that album after listening to a live performace from 1977 called the wonderland session although I will say the live performances of the period of transition material blows away the studio versions and the studio cuts are incredible in their own right.
For sure. That return trilogy he released in the late 70s-transition, wave length, and into the music are three of my favorites.
Van Morrison's church!!
His background as an Irish protestant opened up his soul searching for his identity
30 years Later Still My Man ! Love his ideology Love You. Brotherman Van❤😢
Van Morrison has the same philosophy towards the meaning of his song writing that BOB Dylan does . Dylan has said he does not write the songs he receives them and the songs are floating around and he catches them or receives them .
Van's music has always been a really important part of the soundtrack of my life. For me, it all started with "It's Too Late to Stop Now".
Good gear. Can't wait for the next
Veedon Fleece was his best album. A masterpiece.
Unparalleled , even majestic
Just read the Village Voice 1975 review. He was excoriated. Unreal. I wore that album out. I had to listen to it every day, almost. Still my fave album of all his work.
You make many salient points. Good discussion.
Its hard for me to take in that in the last song which is being recorded live in a New York studio is about a street in Belfast less than 12 miles from where I am now. Great video.
His string of albums from 1995 to 2003 were all high quality albums .
I think his best albums were obviously Astral Weeks ; Veedom Fleece ; Moondance ; Band and Street chiour ; Hard Nose the Highway ; Tupelo Honey and those were kind of skimmed over . Everything after that got more attention
it is a ride, and it is a road, it is a trajectory and a tour, route and the pathway and he is in the driving seat, it is his journey for me to contemplate..
Absolutely ❤VM
You know this all encompassing
Storyline can be the explanation
of his name and what it is. Quite
simply Van The MAN. He is in control of His own life.
Hard to believe Veedon Fleece was so critically bashed on its release!! One of his standout albums. Second to Astral weeks in my mind.
A person of my own mind. My 2 favorite albums of all time. Don't know how many thousands of times I have listened to each one. Not far behind I have Into the Music and St. Dominic's. Common One was also trashed in the reviews, but I thought it was great, There are a bunch of other exceptional ones,, but those are my stand outs.
Van Morrison is in my top 5 solo artists, I've been following him since 1984, i have most of his early albums, on vinyl and CD. I must admit i overlooked A period of transition over the years, i should give it a second chance, I saw Van Morrison live in Lucca Italy 4/5 years ago. I agree about Common one which his on my favourite but i prefer Veedon Fleece which is in 3rd position in my ranking
❤️ van morrison‘s road to god.....
Wonderful, intelligent and inspiring documentary!
Thank you.
(My only criticism - in the subtitles: 'saxaphone' - ouch!)
Such a pity Van wasn't more open and friendly, his abrasive image has dogged his career and cost him millions of fans that would have warmed to his wonderful music.
With Mick Ronson! Amazing!
Dylan had quite a few peaks and troughs threw out the 70s 80s and early 90s but he hit another great peak and had a huge resurgence with time out of mind in 1997 and he has stayed at that level ever since . The last 25 years had been very consistent for Dylan with each album being fantastic . Although van has been releasing albums in a more prolific manner . Dylan releases a new album every 4 years or so while van is still releasing albums every 1 to 2 years.
Since 2015 he’s released 12 studio records. I don’t know anyone else in their seventies who’s come anywhere near that.
Interesting to see the crossing
K emtrails in the sky at 37mins. And to think people think that is normal sky formation.
Anyway, Van’s music has grabbed me this past year
Astral weeks 👍👍👍
RIP Pee Wee....
Of course Van was paranoid. The business stole his music and money and they wanted him to be a teeny-bopper and he wasn't going to do that.
For me, my favorite van is the 80's through the 90's--his more "spiritual" music. I will always love Van and forgive him for his near-constant complaining on his most recent albums--but I miss the more "tender" side of Van--the instrumentals, meditations, the spoken poetry--songs like, Across the Bridge Where Angels Dwell, and "Sense of Wonder," and "Avalon Sunset"---with the strings, the choirs. Honestly, I worry about him. He seems to have spiraled into more bitterness, anger, and confrontational-songs than ever, and I worry he is somehow suffering inside. Anyway, just saying, I miss his albums like, "Common One," "Beautiful Visions," "Innatriculate Speech of the Heart," "Sense of Wonder," "Avalon Sunset," "Enlightenment," Hymns to the Silence." Anyway, Van to me, will always be, the Man.
You don’t need to worry about Van. As he’s approaching 80, he’s too busy trying to get everything possible out before he’s reunited with the immortals he’s inspired by.
Yes yes also Veedon fleece.
was that Mick Ronson playing guitar with Van on that "Period of Transition" clip of " If you Can"?
The fact he’s openly stood up against COVID TYRANNY speaks volumes. He’s a man. A real human
What do you mean Covid Tyranny?
@@gtrrobsterYou’ll find out sooner or later. Hopefully enough people will to prevent it from occurring again.
Chop that wood
Carry water
What's the sound of one hand clapping?
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
I thought Veedon Fleece was a brilliant album from the get go. I could not understand the criticism at the time. My opinion was eventually proved correct when suddenly the critics think its a great album.
they insist in sticking ads in the middle of the music!!
I dont know... I think that Australia's Vince Jones gives Morrison a run for it, although Vince has nowhere near the output, he has written some of the finest songs even penned.
Van Morrison, Miles Davis and Ginger Baker walk into a bar.
I love Van Morrison, particularly this period. I love his arrangements and musicianship. The music is beautiful, and his vocals are inspiring. I probably have as much Van Morrison music as I have of anyone. It's a shame his last couple of albums have gone a bit off the deep end with conspiracy theories, paranoia and what not. Still, I will always listen to his music. Sadly, I've never seen him live; my brother did, but Van was really drunk apparently and left the stage after a few tunes. I was fortunate a few years ago to be back stage with a couple of members of Average White Band, and Morrison's name came up. They had some stories. I will say that I think Van's band always sound fantastic.
you're a wise man, tom. no reason not to appreciate what another wise man in video calls "a god given gift". van wants to keep performing which is where the paranoia comes from i think.
@@marcyfan His last couple of albums have been filled with anti-vax COVID tunes and anti-government propaganda. I love his music generally, and even the last couple of albums have a few great sounding tunes, but on the whole the albums were not up to his standards.
He'll be proven right about all of it in time. Calling out WEF and Schwab is the punk rock of today. Locking people down over a head cold, crimes against humanity.
@@chrish9311 That "head cold" killed at least 2 of my friends, over 1 million Americans and put me in bed with a 103 degree fever for 2 weeks, when I was so weak and exhausted that I could barely eat anything or make my way to the bathroom.. The long term effects aren't so great either. Life expectancy in the US actually decreased for the first time I can remember. "Head cold" my ass.
@@tommonk7651 yea sorry bro, some people die from the flu each year, many in fact. Lose weight and exercise and it won't be so bad next time. No reason to lock down the world and ruin the economy, now people will die from suicides and alcoholism and drug abuse instead cause they can't cope.
i've always liked his music but I knew very little of him, seems like quite the an unpalatable fellow
And you are wrong
Eireann hero! 🍀🇬🇧📚😉🎵
Why are you on facebook ha,ha
They didn't review back on top or magic time. Kinda lame if you ask me. I'm only 30 but back on top was a tape my dad and I would listen to every time we would go into town only a five minute drive but every time it hit the end my dad would just flip the tape over and start it again. Anywho I always would flip through astral weeks when putting in a record for my dad but didn't even listen to the album until I was at least 27. Kinda came to me right at the exact time I would have acquainted myself with it if I was in a story book. Anyway those two albums are really good ones too just a fyi just not classic Van. I'd say back on top was his last good album but kind of a last hoorah and not a signature album. It's my favorite tho
There's nothing spiritual about van morrison music. His music is the best. Awesome performer. Plenty of good music. My fav artist.
That is a ridiculous thing to say considering hymns to the silence !
Nothing spiritual about life ,life is life ,..& death , well ,that's the mystery of life
@@rickbouthillier4394Avalon sunset and Beautiful vision every song is about spirituality lol what a dunce
I love van's music but I struggle to like van the man - I can understand his opinions on the music business but his behaviour at concerts is not very endearing...
I don’t think we would have VAN THE MAN without the man Van…… I’ll take VAN THE MAN!
His last good album- Release was at least 20 years ago
Thankfully I had the pleasure of never meeting Van.
😉
That was funny
@@damagedbug8848 A lot like Willy Wonka aren't you.
He's a deep thinking individual, unlike you.
Yawn.
As much as I like his sound, his song writing now serves the far right, conspiracy based fans. The newest album doesn’t have a single song that doesn’t preach the message.
Far right conspiracy theorist?
For promoting freedom ?
We need many more of those.
@@timjohnson5528 - indeed Tim. But don't be concerned by these voices because, frankly, time will tell (and tell them). The Buddha said there are three things that cannot be hidden for long: The Sun The Moon and The Truth.
Here's my own album with lyrics that might resonate: th-cam.com/play/OLAK5uy_nN4hnWkciwQbhUcY0Wd_qfgRPjtPgve9I.html
Freedom to not be forcibly injected with experimental medical ‘vaccines’ is “far-right”?!?!?!
LMAO!!
Amazing how not wanting to be locked in your home and not wanting your ability to make a living stripped from you makes you far right. Not all of us can work form home and not all of us can survive of a UBI glorified welfare cheque . People are dying of cancer because their cancer treatments were canceled due to lockdowns but I guess not wanting to die from cancer that was beatable makes you far right. How many things that were called conspiracy theories in April 2020 have ended up coming true. So called conspiracy theories are becoming spoiler alerts at this point.
Mentally constipated sheep who mouth government talking points are a dime a dozen, you're the perfect example.
