Van Morrison is now a despicable human being, but his music remains potent, timeless and stunning in ways that I can't dismiss. This was another game-changer.
Wow! Love this Buckley cover. And well said Jim. Sweet Thing has always been, to me, about the pure joy and inspiration of the creative process. I never really considered it a "love song", although I never knew how to put that into words. You said it so beautifully here.
I was just listening to Astral Weeks. Cypress Avenue just levels me every time!
I have to constantly separate the artist from the art with films and music, and hey, it's what we do if we love art. The art they create is the gold and the gift. Thank you for a great article!
