Love it. Up there with Astral Weeks, but less known.

[TimeLion]

Van Morrison’s ambivalence to his best music is exasperating, but at least explains why he chose not to make more of it.

[Skinny]

My favourite Van Morrison record. Has the rambling, stream of consciousness vibe that makes Astral Weeks, but adds the crucial ingredient of actual songs. (Way too harsh on AW, but the easiest way to make a point in 2017 is by offending other people.)
