A genius but so humble. Great! I adore him!

[@RareFindMusicVideos]

Yes, indeed. Very few are in his league...

@@RareFindMusicVideos few at his age are so productive. most repeat the same repertoire but no new pieces

This is a very good interview; the lady is great at asking good sensible questions and Van looks relaxed. I would not want Van to be any different, why the heck should he explain, his work has got a brilliance about it, you can make up your own stories to go with those songs, and sometimes they will be better than what the writer will tell you. The people of this world are very lucky to have the likes of Van Morrison, Bob Dylan kicking around, writing, recording and still playing gigs/concerts to this day

[@RareFindMusicVideos]

Yes, Van the Man :)

Always great even when he don’t want it. Best singer writer of all time

[@RareFindMusicVideos]

100% agree

[@JeffSchreiber99]

And most under appreciated without a doubt. Van walked away from fame at a young age. Decided he could live with being a first class musician. But never wanted to be a star so he gave the vultures and grifters in the industry the finger and did it his way. Sinatra would be impressed.

[@jamesbradshaw3389]

I refuse to disagree with you, Van and Bob are the very best , they are equal to the master painters of long ago
