banjo48 928 Posted August 31, 2015 Report Share Posted August 31, 2015 Always remember many years ago, the Old Grey Whistle Test, I think, and it was the first time I'd heard Van Morrison and his band, playing live too ! Pure magic, I went out and bought the album next day, I still have most of his stuff on my iphone and in my music library on itunes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cliff Ton 10,457 Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 I'm not a great fan, but yesterday BBC4 showed a recent concert by Van to celebrate his 70th birthday. It's on iPlayer. http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b068fvks/van-morrison-up-on-cyprus-avenue Quote Link to post Share on other sites
