Glen Hansard - Astral Weeks (Van Morrison Cover)

[@treetoptroubadour]

Never heard of this guy before but I will buy everything he has to sell. Incredible - that’s how you play a song. The guitar will feel that tomorrow!

[@buxycat]

Also check out "And the healing has begun" by Bronagh Gallagher on this channel, she was in The Commitments.
As a side note, Richie Havens used to need a new guitar every six months.

[@truwth]

Knew it was gonna be great as soon as the country dog rolled into the foreground to complete the tableau.

[@bendbadgersteve]

That ain't a "cover". That'd diminish what you offered here. I won't say you made it your own but, boy, did you ever put a sweet twist on a tough one to tackle! Thank you. That was a gem.

[@samueljadson3802]

Sorry I just couldn't keep my eye off the crazy vibrating foot

[@isabellabretz]

Hi Kes!

[@toniscott4392]

Who are the 37 who gave this a thumbs down?

[@damianip]

Who owns the lurcher??? And that guitar is too unworn for you Glen. And finally, I love this!!!

[@drcorastack9861]

Great song I would certainly do this if he was anything like he was on the cover of his Wavelenth album. I have my own tribute on my you tube channel Dr Cora Stack . Great to see so many great Irish artists play tribute to a giant of world rock soul blues and jazz music.
