And read more Yeats. I stopped reading music newspapers like NME a couple of decades ago as I couldn't understand what the hell the journalists were talking about, even when Listening to Van Morrison were writing about music I knew very well. It all seemed Listening to Van Morrison they were trying to prove how clever they were and, maybe showing that I'm not so clever, I just didn't get it. This is the tone that carries across in this book - Marcus has clearly thought Listening to Van Morrison lot about Morrison's music, and he really wants you to know that he has. So, while there's too much "clever-cloggery", there isn't enough of the stuff that partially redeems the book: background to the writing and recording of the songs featured; Morrison's own thoughts about the songs though, granted, he doesn't Listening to Van Morrison much about his work ; and just why Morrison's music, and these songs in particular, are so important to Marcus. Maybe that stuff is in there and I just wasn't paying enough attention, but I had to force myself to finish the book and, while I'm glad I did, it's not an experience I'd care to repeat, at least not all in one go. I might re-read a chapter about a particular song as I'm listening to it - but then again, I might not. I bought this book thinking it might give me some insight into what I find so appealing about Listening to Van Morrison Morrison's wonderful music. In the end, I guess I've decided that Marcus's opinions about Morrison just don't matter to me all that much, and I'm glad: I'm happy to leave my fascination with Van Morrison's music somewhat unexamined. As Billy Bragg said: The temptation To take the precious things we have apart To see how they work Must be resisted for Listening to Van Morrison never fit together again. Rimmer Mar 30, I like Van Morrison! Do you like Van Morrison?! The experience can be illuminating, frustrating, transcendent, and solipsistic—often in the same paragraph or song. Like Morrison, Marcus has been following his own path for quite some time, and anyone who has a passing familiarity with either of them will Listening to Van Morrison be able to find the gold hidden down a backstreet or way up top a flight of fancy. As with any great artist—and to put my cards on the table, I believe Morrison to be one of the greatest singers of the last 40 years—what pieces resonate with your soul at any given time is completely subjective. I think Marcus is either trying to be cute, or is just being lazy to discount in one fell swoop everything Morrison put out between Common One inand Tell Me Something in I remember standing in front of the TV just slack- jawed; this was someone who warranted further investigation. All of a sudden I understood why someone like Morrison would rankle against cheap stardom. This Listening to Van Morrison, this is the point. Baby, Please Don't Go. Behind the Ritual.

I’d like you to read Lester Bangs’ review of the Van Morrison album Astral Weeks. It’s one of the most famous album reviews ever written, probably because it’s very passionate, subjective, and personal—qualities we don’t usually associate with art criticism. Before you read the review, you should listen to the Van Morrison album, which many people consider to be one of the greatest rock/pop albums of all time.

  • Astral Weeks? – It’S Not Just Me, …
    ASTRAL WEEKS? – IT’S NOT JUST ME, … THE RECORDING Van: “The entire LP was recorded in two eight-hour sessions, plus two overdub sessions. That was the whole album.” (Yorke p.51). Astral Weeks was recorded in just two sessions (48 hours) at Century Sound Studios, on West 52nd Street in New York (25 September & 15 October 1968), using NY session (jazz) musicians: Richard Davis (bass), Connie Kay (drums) from the Modern Jazz Quartet, Warren Smith Jr. (percussionist/vibraphone), John Payne (flute/soprano saxophone), and Jay Berliner (guitar), chosen by Lew Merenstein (Producer) in consultation with Richard Davis (bassist). “Merenstein received a call from Warner Bros: ‘We’ve signed Van Morrison, go up to Boston, see what he’s got’. … Morrison played Merenstein his song Astral Weeks: ‘Thirty seconds into it my whole being was vibrating … I had to be the producer to do it. Not that producer, not that producer, regardless of their accomplishments. It had to be Richard (Davis), not that bass player, I don’t want to sound existential, but there was Van, and that was it; there was no band, there were no arrangements, the direction was him singing and playing – that was where I followed. That’s why it came out like it did. To this day, it gives me pain to hear it; pain is the wrong word – I’m so moved by it.” (Marcus p.52-8). Lew Merenstein (Producer): “The musical energy of Astral Weeks came from the great players. That was the jazz background that I had, and that I brought in to it.

  • Venturing in the Slipstream
    VENTURING IN THE SLIPSTREAM THE PLACES OF VAN MORRISON’S SONGWRITING Geoff Munns BA, MLitt, MEd (hons), PhD (University of New England) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Western Sydney University, October 2019. Statement of Authentication The work presented in this thesis is, to the best of my knowledge and belief, original except as acknowledged in the text. I hereby declare that I have not submitted this material, either in full or in part, for a degree at this or any other institution. .............................................................. Geoff Munns ii Abstract This thesis explores the use of place in Van Morrison’s songwriting. The central argument is that he employs place in many of his songs at lyrical and musical levels, and that this use of place as a poetic and aural device both defines and distinguishes his work. This argument is widely supported by Van Morrison scholars and critics. The main research question is: What are the ways that Van Morrison employs the concept of place to explore the wider themes of his writing across his career from 1965 onwards? This question was reached from a critical analysis of Van Morrison’s songs and recordings. A position was taken up in the study that the songwriter’s lyrics might be closely read and appreciated as song texts, and this reading could offer important insights into the scope of his life and work as a songwriter. The analysis is best described as an analytical and interpretive approach, involving a simultaneous reading and listening to each song and examining them as speech acts.

  • Popular Music Stuart Bailie a Troubles Archive Essay
    popular music A Troubles Archive Essay Stuart Bailie Cover Image: Victor Sloan - Market Street, Derry From the collection of the Arts Council of Northern Ireland About the Author Stuart Bailie was on the staff of the NME (New Musical Express) from 1988 to 1996, rising to Assistant Editor in his last three years there. Since then, he has worked as a freelance journalist for Mojo, Uncut, Q, The Times, The Sunday Times and Hot Press. He has written sleevenotes for U2 and wrote the authorised story of Thin Lizzy, The Ballad Of The Thin Man in 1997. He has been presenting a BBC Radio Ulster show each Friday evening since 1999. He has been Associate Producer of several BBC TV music programmes, including the story of Ulster rock and pop: ‘So Hard To Beat’ in 2007. He has also been the scriptwriter / researcher for a series of BBC Radio 2 documentaries on U2, Thin Lizzy and Elvis Costello. Stuart is now CEO of Oh Yeah, a dedicated music centre in Belfast. Popular Music In September 1968 Van Morrison was in NewYork, recording a series of songs about life back in Belfast. This was his Astral Weeks album, one of his most important works. It was also a vivid snapshot of Northern Ireland just before the climate changed dramatically with the outbreak of the Troubles. In Morrison’s sentimental picture, there were youthful voices, parties and high-spirits; flamboyant figures such as Madame George cruised the streets of Belfast as the post-war generation challenged social conventions. The hippy ideals were already receding in America, but Belfast had experienced a belated Summer of Love and a blossoming social life.
