Astral Weeks - 180 Gram

VAN MORRISON Astral Weeks (2020 UK/EU 8-track LP pressed on 180gram Vinyl - Van's second studio album originally released in November 1968 is widely regarded as a masterpiece, blending folk, blues, jazz, and classical styles, and signalling aradical departure from the sound of his previous pop hits. The lyrics and cover art portray the symbolism equating earthly love and heaven that would often feature in his subsequent records. His lyrics have been described as impressionistic, hypnotic, and modernist, while the record has been categorized as a song cycle or concept album. The picture sleeve replicates the original cover art. The sleeve shows a little scuffing and creasing and the vinyl has just one or two superficial paper marks but little evidence of play)

Tracklisting & More Information

1968's Astral Weeks remains not only Morrison's masterpiece but one of the greatest records ever made. A haunting, deeply personal collection of impressionistic folk-styled epics recorded by an all-star jazz backing unit including bassist Richard Davis and drummer Connie Kay, its poetic complexity earned critical raves but made only a minimal commercial impact.
