i guess i don't really have much of relevance to add, but i thought you may take interest in something i have. it's a 45 of "brown eyed girl" with transparent colored vinyl. in this case it's green. pretty cool, really. if i run across it while sorting through my vinyl, i'll post up a picture of it. unfortunately i don't have the original sleeve.

One of the few white musicians with Soul. And Van the man has it in spades. Astral weeks is stunning.

Checkout 2 albums of his: Irish Heartbeat with the chieftains, and His Band and the Street Choir

"And it Stoned Me" is one of my all time favorite songs.

Definitely appreciate me some Van Morrison.

Great talent. Moondance, Astral Weeks, and Tupelo Honey are must have records. Admittedly, however, beyond those albums, I am unfamiliar with the rest of his work.

jpgrdnr said it, Van the Man has got soul, real bloodful pumping soul.


'Sweet Thing' is one of my favorites. Tied with the rest i know.

I'm not very familiar with much other than his hits although one day hopefully i'll remember him at the record store when i'm looking for something different, but the guitar tone on the opening of brown eyed girl is one of my favorites.
