Listening to Van Morrison
Greil Marcus
Van Morrison remains a singer who can be compared to no other in the history of modern popular music. When "Astral Weeks" was re-released as a live album in 2009 it reached the top of the Billboard charts, a first for any Van Morrison recording. This book attempts to understand Van Morrison's genius through the extraordinary moments in his career.
