VAN MORRISON Astral Weeks & His Band and the Street Choir Zwei Meisterwerke Von VAN MORRISON Remastert Und Mit Unveröffentlichten Tracks! Ab 30 im Auftrag: medienAgentur Stefan Michel T 040-5149 1467 F 040-5149 1465 [email protected] VAN MORRISON Astral Weeks & His Band And The Street Choir Zwei Meisterwerke von VAN MORRISON remastert und mit unveröffentlichten Tracks! Ab 30. Oktober Bereits 2013 wurde VAN MORRISONs Durchbruchs-Album Moondance aus dem Jahr 1970 mit einer aufwändigen und sehr umfangreichen Deluxe Edition gefeiert, die bis zum Rand mit unveröffentlichten Studio- Outtakes vollgepackt war. Nun präsentiert Rhino/Warner Music zwei weitere legendäre MORRISON-Alben, die heute Kultstatus besitzen: Das brillante Warner-Debüt Astral Weeks von 1968 und der Moondance- Nachfolger His Band And The Street Choir von 1970. Auch diese beiden Alben erscheinen in remasterten Versionen und enthalten bisher unveröffentlichte Versionen einiger Albumtracks. Beide Alben erscheinen als 1CD- Expanded & Remastered Edition und zum Download am 30. Oktober! Als Astral Weeks im Herbst 1968 veröffentlicht wurde, verfehlte es die Charts knapp. Aber 47 Jahre danach ist das Album zu einem Mythos für gleich mehrere Generationen von Fans geworden, die VAN MORRISON in den letzten Jahren entdeckten und seinem Zauber erlegen sind. „Jede Bestenliste ist undenkbar – und wertlos - wenn sie nicht dieses Album enthält“, so schreibt Cory Frye in den neuen Liner-Notes zum Album. Neben dem kompletten Album enthält die Astral Weeks Deluxe Edition vier weitere Aufnahmen, die hier zum ersten Mal erhältlich sind. Sie zeigen das grandiose Zusammenspiel zwischen MORRISON und dem Musiker- Quartett, das ihn auf dem Album begleitet: Bassist Richard Davis, Gitarrist Jay Berliner, Percussionist Warren Smith und Modern Jazz-Quartett-Drummer Connie Kay. Zu den Bonustracks gehören der erste Take von Beside You, die ungekürzte Version von Slim Slow Slider und eine Variante von Madame George, die den Einsatz des Vibraphons in den Vordergrund stellt. Direkt nach dem großen Erfolg von Moondance erschien His Band And The Street Choir im November des Jahres 1970. Während Astral Weeks und Moondance allerdings über das All und die ungelösten Rätsel der Liebe sinnierte, strotzt His Band And The Street Choir förmlich vor überschäumender Energie, wie etwa im Top-10-Hit Domino oder Blue Money und Call Me Up In Dreamland. Die remasterte Edition des Albums enthält fünf zusätzliche, unveröffentlichte Tracks, darunter eine raue Version vom Give Me A Kiss ganz ohne Piano, Bläser und Backing Vocals. MORRISONs beeindruckende Falsett-Stimme dominiert den dritten Take von Gypsy Queen, und die Band zeigt sich in der hier vorliegenden Version von I’ve Been Working von ihrer funkigsten Seite.

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.

  • Starmaking Turn Oscar-Winning ‘Juno’ Makes Page a Household Name
    Page 20 In Tune The Daily News WEDNESDAY, APRIL 16, 2008 IT Starmaking turn Oscar-winning ‘Juno’ makes Page a household name By DAVID GERMAIN AP Movie Writer “Juno” Teen pregnancy becomes less of a burden when the mother involved is the coolest, sharpest-tongued kid in school and sets out to find the perfect adoptive parents for the baby she’s hatching. Ellen Page earned a best-actress Academy Award nomination as the title character, an almost impossibly glib teenager whose support crew includes a best-friend beau (Michael Cera), a sym- pathetic dad (J.K. Simmons), bold stepmom (Allison Janney) and a seemingly ideal couple (Jennifer Garner and Jason Bateman) looking to adopt. The movie comes in single- DVD, two-disc DVD and Blu- ray high-definition releases that include 11 deleted scenes, plus commentary with direc- tor Jason Reitman and writer Diablo Cody, who won the Oscar for original screenplay. The two-disc set and Blu-ray disc also have digital copies of the film for portable media players and a handful of fea- turettes, among them seg- ments on Reitman and Cody. Single DVD, $29.98; two-disc DVD set, $34.98; Blu-ray, $39.98. (20th Century Fox) “Aliens Vs. Predator: Requiem” The clash of the space beasts resumes in this second movie in a series that revived two long-dead sci-fi franchises by making the creatures fight each other. This one sets the relent- less aliens loose in Colorado after a space ship crashes there, Ellen Page, second from left, earned an Oscar nomination for best actress for her portrayal of the titular “Juno” in one of the year’s sleeper hits.

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.
