That...Yes, Van is clearly not convinced by Spotify. That's why I used the Youtube links. But he is there in abundance. You can find whole albums. Astral Weeks and St Dominic's are great (and Trevor stands over Veedon Fleece).<br /><br />But then I love Them, and particularly Gloria. Aways thought it was strange that the garageband perennials for both 60's and 70's were from Northern Irish bands.

I'm not sure why especially as I like a load of artists who have been ripping him off for years (maybe something to do with Them being one of those bands and Gloria being one of those songs I have a strange illogical hatred for!) Spotify has its issues but this is what it is made for - I can now have skim through Van the Man's stuff before committing - a bit like sleeping together before marriage ..ish <br /><br />although I've now just looked at spotify is pretty crap as far as Van is concerned more like a fudge and a nudge before marraigeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-500794647428701667.post-76028741163627577222013-04-01T17:39:11.472+01:002013-04-01T17:39:11.472+01:00You'll notice I've removed I Will be There...You'll notice I've removed I Will be There, immediately improving the album.

It took me a while to grasp the beauty of those two and I'm guessing that St Dom's retreat from my favour is more about my joy at grasping the previously unreachable. Listen to the Lion, Almost Independence Day and the title track would all be in my fav' Van top 20; it's the two average cuts (I Will Be There & Redwood Tree) that, for me, keeps it from greatness... Playing it now and it's a beautiful sound...Hissyfithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06865300919319235353noreply@blogger.com
