Can anyone tell me some cool Van Morrison tunes?
Things were different then. All is different now.
I tried to explain. Somehow.

    Some of my favourites that I don't think were mentioned include Into the Mystic, Jackie Wilson Said, And It Stoned Me, and Moondance.
    No time to be void or save up on life. You got to spend it all.

    Check out the double live album Too Late To Stop Now, from the early 70s, one of the best live albums ever released.

    My fav is brown-eyed girl. Moondance is a good one too though.
    These cuts are leaving creases. Trace the scars to fit the pieces, to tell the story, you don't need to say a word.

    Well, TB Sheets is a bit long for a best of album, probably put together partly with bar juxeboxes in mind, but I agree, it's great!

    Moondance is one of my all time favorite albums....ANYTHING from that is great.

    Tupelo Honey is good too.
