Van Morrison: Inarticulate Speech of the Heart

Interesting read. Can't say I agreed with all his opinions but that's what they are, his opinions. There is no input from Morrison himself but it has been researched with some useful insights into a notoriously private man with with limited social skills.

VAN WHO IN MY OPINION IS (AS SAID BY BONO OR STING NOT SURE)"IF THEIR ARE 10 MUSICAL GENIUSES FROM MOZART TO BEETHOVEN VAN IS ONE. MR. COLLIS SAYS "SUMMERTIME IN ENGLAND" CAN ONLY SEEM INSULTING TO ANYONE TO WHOM THE GREAT POETS MATTER. ALSO THAT "WHEN HEART IS OPEN" IS FRANKLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LISTEN TO. I READ THIS 10 MIN AGO AND AS ONE WHO HAS NEVER BLOGED(OR WHATEVER INTERNET POSTING IS CALLED) TURNED ON MY COMPUTER AND HAD AN EMAIL TO REVIEW THIS BOOK FROM ANAZON. COULD NOT RESIST. TO ANY OF THE MANY WHO HAVE HAD THEIR LIVES PROFOUNDLY INFLUENCED IF NOT OUTRIGHT "HEALED" THEY WILL UNDERSTAND MY REACTION TO THIS OPINION, WHICH MR. COLLIS IS ENTITLED TO, HE IS THE PUBLISHED CRITIC WHO OBVIOUSLY HAS NOT YET EXPERIENCED THE "ROUGH GOD" GONE RIDING. KEEP IT SIMPLE BOB STEINZIG [email protected]
