You owe it to yourselves to consume the entire Moondance album. The music and musicianship is impeccable, but even more so the engineering is phenomenal. Few other albums have as much distinction and separation on every single instrument. I'm a huge Steely Dan fan, but I have to admit that Moondance may be the best recorded and engineered album I've ever heard.

Real Tupelo Honey is found in the Southern Cypress Swamps in Florida and Georgia from the white Ogeechee tupelo trees. These trees only blossom about 10 days a year for the bees to make the honey. The flavor, color, and rarity of tupelo honey make it good enough for the Angels. The song is a tribute to the domestic happiness of true love of a woman and about freedom in living your life.

It's just important and after decades together, she should know.. She returns the love. If a woman thinks you are weak for showing her love, you may be with the wrong woman.

The Moondance album is a classic, well-crafted and very accessible, but his Astral Weeks is his masterpiece. I don't know if I'm just slow, but I only recognized how great it is a few years ago. Or maybe I only started paying attention to the studio musicians at a late date. They are a large part of what make Astral Weeks so great.

Yeah... this entire song is about freedom. "She's as sweet as Tupelo Honey" = Freedom (in N. Ireland) is rare & sweet. Van has deep roots in Black American soul of the 50's & 60's... and has toured here extensively. I saw him 30 years ago in DC... one of the most stellar evenings of music ever. The guy sings, plays guitar, piano... and the sax you heard on this song as well. His bands are always impeccable. I always thought the mention of tea could be related to American freedom - the Boston Tea Party tossing British tea into the harbor because of the taxation... but I've never checked to see if there might be some connection to a similar tea tax incident in N. Ireland.
