Sunday Brunch With Van Morrison
By Bob Berry
Sunday morning coming down on Keener 13. Perfect for sharing music news for Van Morrison fans, and one of his classic tracks. from 1979’s album “Into The Music”.
Legacy Recordings has acquired the rights to Van Morrison’s entire catalog, some 50 years of music, going back to the days when Van fronted the group Them. Plans call for the release of selected LP’s, expected to include alternate and bonus tracks, to the eventual digital re-release of the entire catalog.
And what a catalog it is! From hit singles like “Gloria”, “Here Comes The Night”, “Brown-Eyed Girl” and “Wild Night”, to the classic albums “Astral Weeks” and “Moondance” and sonic adventures like the personal favorite, “Poetic Champions Compose”; Van Morrison has demanded your attention, and rewarded you with great music.
The first release from Legacy, “The Essential Van Morrison” with 37 tracks was released digitally and as a 2-CD set this past Friday, along with 33 albums available on all streaming services.
Here’s another personal favorite, Cut 1, Side 2 of the new CD, “Bright Side Of The Road”. Enjoy!
