Great set….but I have all of these songs on other collections.
Have a happy Father’s Day, George!
Deb, thanks for the Happy Father’s Day wishes! This concert from 1973 sounds great!
“Eclectic” is certainly a word I’d use for Morrison in general. “Domino” (his tribute to Fats Domino) is probably my favorite song of his, but I see several other favorites on there as well.
Happy Father’s Day! Have a great barbecue.
Jeff, thanks! I was surprised to hear “Gloria” and “Here Comes the Night” from Van Morrison’s years with THEM.
I’m not a huge Morrison fan, but I do like some of his music quite a bit.
Bill, it won’t surprise you to learn I own almost all of Van Morrison’s CDs. These new concert CDs are like a time machine taking me back to 1973.
Happy Father’s Day, George!
No “Brown-Eyed Girl”? I have one Morrison album, and it’s enough.
Rick, many thanks! I’ll be FACETIMING with Patrick and Katie this evening.
Happy Father’s Day, George. To a man who lives life to the fullest.
Patti, I took lesson from Phil.
