Van Morrison and Bob Dylan, One Irish Rover (from 'One Irish Rover' DVD, 1991)

Spent the 80s n 90s summers in Greece listening to Bob n Van in the blistering sun.

[@Nietzschebot1]

It's hard for me not to believe that "Foreign Window" is more about Dylan than Van Morrison lets on in the commentary, given how much the words fit Dylan's life. Regardless, the fact that it fits Dylan so much, along with the intimacy in the midst of grandeur, makes this blurry video one of the most beautiful musical moments ever recorded.

Van the Man!! Bob the god! Folk, Soul and Rock and Roll by two giants who've seen it, lived it, both knocked on Satan's door and said to each other "fuck this, let's go and have one more cup of coffee with Sara, The Sad Eyed Lady of the Lowlands?" To which Bob said "as long as we can have a" van butt's in and says "for fucks sake don't say a Moondance or I'm turning around and knocking on heavens door!!" Brilliant to see these guys, its such a treat as stuff like this is so rare!!

Michael keaney I'll say, Bob is God's gift to humanity. He's got it all. But I'm a woman, I'm appreciating Bob's gorgeous, charismatic appearance. He makes me feel lust, be his woman. Yes I want him so baaad..Bob has that affect on women.. the Morrison guy not..Mr M. Is obviously inspired by Bob, put in a touch of Rimbaud, doesn't make him (M) in Bob's range. I can very well understand that men, likes Morrison, he isn't a treat to their women. I would follow Bob in a heartbeat, leave them all behind (family) But it's only Bob who has that magical impact...🌎🔥💙💥

Raglan Road was a poem written by Patrick Kavanagh, in fact if you walk up to the canal at upper Baggot St, Dublin you'll see the monument of Kavanagh sitting there-he wrote it about a lost love whom he encountered many years before, it's a touching poem and was first sung by Luke Kelly, but I like Van's rendition.

[@MarkTarmannPianoCheck_it_out]

When you quote someone, it'd be helpful to use "quotes" around the quote, so we could know where the quote begins and ends. And, really luv, is it so painful to use caps and punctuation, so we can know also where the sentences begin and end? Ulysses was more pure shite for the lack of grammar and punctuation. Far more. Are we all sloppy, bloody little Joyces with our sloppy sms-ing?. No, we're not. Clean it up. Fly right.
