Van’s soulfulness comes pouring out of him here!

[@John_Chu]

The saxophone was very central to Van's musical palette. It was Morrison's original instrument. He later picked up guitar as he moved from jazz to pop/rock/blues in his teens. It's also key to his vocals. You can hear the legato in his singing, much like a tenor sax might sound. Despite his overall grumpiness and odd beliefs, Van is one of the greatest musical artists and songwriters of his time. He was often suggested as poet laureate of Ireland.

[@doriwiljt]

Yes we were teenagers listening to the best music

[@heatherpratt3867]

Love Van. He’s prolific. Much more great stuff to react to.

[@user-mm1nw4ym6q]

Van is still creating albums and touring now and he’s gotta be in his late 70’s or even his 80’s now. He’s one of the greatest musicians, singers and songwriters of all time.

[@TeresaMosby-sm4js]

Into The Mystic.

[@user-mm1nw4ym6q]

Yes!!!

[@ChristopherGwinn]

One of his greats. This whole album is a classic.

[@watchbizmatik]

Can’t wait to here the rest of it

[@ChristopherGwinn]

@@watchbizmatik I think you'll dig it!

[@jimdonahue7230]

His song "Tupelo Honey" is one of the greatest love songs ever.

[@genegibson1690]

I had forgotten what a great voice he has. This song is absolutely great!

[@joelliebler5690]

That’s probably because he lost that voice later in his career!

[@tammywhite5742]

Van is one of a kind…. Thank you for reacting to this song…it’s a great one!!’

Van the man, "and it stoned me to my soul..." thank you Biz for making my day a little better :)

[@watchbizmatik]

My pleasure fam

Van was the frontman and lead vocalist when he belonged to one of the British invasion bands from Northern Ireland 'THEM' during the '60's. 'THEM's' international smash hit single "Gloria" released back in 1964 was smokin' hot for that time period and might be worth checking out. "Gloria" was covered by various recording artists over the decades. Many young musicians who started putting together and forming a band known as (garage bands) in the U.S. played this song auditioning prospects to join and become a member of their group in the mid-sixties. 🔍🔎🎤🎸🎹🥁🔊🔥☮🎧

[@SteveWalsh-qm3tk]

This song and Into the Mystic were my go to songs with a blunt and a bonfire on the beach

[@mikecaetano]

Moondance is one of the great albums of the 20th century. Every song on it is a gem. Check out "These Dreams of You" and "Glad Tidings" from that album. "The Way Young Lovers Do" from Astral Weeks really cooks in parts. Morrison works the band into a triple meter fever, so to speak, in a long passage evoking the swing of Charles Mingus and others.

[@sandyshoenberger2697]

I remember when I first heard this I thought "stoned me just like JellyRoll" huh? Then I found out he was a musician. Jelly Roll Morton (I think that's right). Love that you said it makes you remember memories you never had. That is such a great compliment about this song.

[@dandare42]

People sometimes let their perception of how prickly and contentious Van is cloud their view of his legacy, but the man is/was a musical genius and you can't deny the monumental twin achievements of Astral Weeks and Moondance. And it's not as if he never followed these with greatness either. It's one thing to put out such masterpieces in your early 20s but to continue to justify that reputation is another challenge altogether. And yet, he still managed to do that.

[@cindyfalstrom7231]

Lovely song. Van was great as a rocker in the 60's with his band "Them". Very different from his later style.

[@Debcatawba]

Along about midnight we used to hear this song on the radio. Great song!

[@ok-qt4kr]

Over the Target here , Biz . So evocative.

[@LornaDay-gt9po]

Even his new music is great. Love Van

[@user-yj7iq6um8g]

His voice is very recognizable, nice! Thank you Biz

[@rodcampbell2391]

Great choice!! VM such a great singer

[@pattymckitrick7436]

❤❤Ahhhhh, the voice of Van❤❤❤❤❤ thank you Bizz !

[@kengunter6903]

Welcome back Biz!!!!

[@watchbizmatik]

Thank you

[@jasonmccluskey3623]

Always worth a listen

[@watchbizmatik]

True

[@J_Gamble]

This is one of my top ten from Van morrison and so is..."The Way Young Lovers Do" from Astral Weeks. It really swings. Great percussion and horns

[@terrieb13]

Love Van! ☮️❤️😎

[@jamesdignanmusic2765]

"This song is planting memories I never had" - nicely put. And well spotted - I can see comparisons to "The Weight" in it too - I'd not noticed that before. If you haven't heard them yet, "Into the Mystic" and "Tupelo Honey" are must-hears. For a deeper cut I'd try "Ballerina" off "Astral Weeks".

[@watchbizmatik]

I want to listen to the whole astral week album

[@tammydean3003]

Check out Wild Night. John Mellancamp did a remake. Hard to pick the best one, they both are great singers.

[@user-mm1nw4ym6q]

Melloncamp doesn’t compare to Van Morrison.

[@petermorgan5303]

That was a great one Biz. Love Van the Man. Appreciate the Beantown lid too 😅

[@seangardner9884]

great reaction

[@caroljshepherd3848]

I love your comment 'it brings back memories i never had.' That's exactly how i feel but didn't know until i heard you say it. 😂 ❤

[@watchbizmatik]

lol

[@mapegatkinson92]

He is the best at creating an alternate life.

[@thomaskelley1718]

Moondance is in the top group of best albums of all time.

[@user-mm1nw4ym6q]

Into the Mystic next!

[@user-mm1nw4ym6q]

I love this album I listen to it fairly often.

[@lynosbourne2024]

Always love you......ans being here for you and supporting you..... didn't care for this one......but live beown eyed girl....and into the mystic .....❤

[@pattymckitrick7436]

❤❤ it's Friday morning, sitting on my porch with my coffee, enjoying this reaction. INTO THE MYSTIC is one of my most favorite songs ever. I have this cd Moondance. ❤❤

[@watchbizmatik]

sounds relaxing

[@pattymckitrick7436]

@@watchbizmatik my porch, and music (add coffee). Almost always how I start my day. ☕

Hey Bizmatik!!..... Thanks for the notification 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤❤

[@watchbizmatik]

💙💙🙌🏿

[@lisarainbow9703]

Makes sense that this reminded you of The Weight, Biz. I've played both of these songs in cover bands over the years, and they're both in the key of A , with similar chord progressions. And they're both songs that can hit you right in the feels...✌🎶

[@watchbizmatik]

Thanks I thought I was trippin lol

[@alansmith7626]

be sure to look up the backstory, lol, is great! Keep on brother!

[@robertday1671]

Carl Smith ( Hey Joe ) live colorized from 1968.

[@sandyshoenberger2697]

Thanks!

[@pb68slab18]

Gotta do some Van Morrison duets with John Lee Hooker. Check 'I Cover the Waterfront" off Mr. Lucky, and "Wasted Years" off of the 'Too Long in Exile' album! Fuckin' magic!

[@jimdonahue7230]

There's a song called "T. B. Sheets" that was very different for him.

[@paulprendergast3184]

I've said this before, but it bears repeating. The A side of this album, Moondance, is possibly the best side on any album, ever!

[@lynosbourne2024]

I Am Your Big Fan love 💓😘

Have you heard “Into the Mystic” yet?🖖🏼

Yes I have

How good is this album? The title track is an absolute classic, and not even the best song on the album
