Personnel: Van Morrison (vocals, guitar, harmonica, alto saxophone); Steve Gregory (flute, baritone saxophone); Candy Dulfer (alto saxophone); Kate St. John (cor anglais); Neil Drinkwater (accordion, piano, synthesizer); Haji Ahkba (flugelhorn); Eddie Friel (piano, organ, synthesizer); Georgie Fame (piano, organ, background vocals); Terry Disley (piano); Derek Bell (synthesizers); Nicky Scott, Steve Pearce (bass); Paul Robinson (drums); Dave Early (drums, percussion); Carol Kenyon, Katie Kissoon (background vocals). Recorded at The Wool Hall Studios, Bath, England; The Townhouse, Westside Studios and Pavillion Studios, London, England. A double CD at this stage of his career came as a surprise, but a double CD this good, came as a shock. Morrison had a great deal to say in 1991 about his childhood and his faith; much of it came through on this record in a much less oblique way than we had been used to. The spoken dialogue on "On Hyndford Street" is intensely personal and revealing. For once, we were hearing Morrison's thoughts. Morrison clearly has religion but on this riveting record he refused to preach. Georgie Fame continued to add familiarity to the sound and this was the best Morrison album for many, many years.
Editorial reviews
Included in Rolling Stone's Essential Recordings of the 90's. Rolling Stone (05/13/1999) Highly Recommended- ...more diverse than all nine '80s albums put together... Spin (11/01/1991) 3 Stars - Good - ...beautifully played assortment of R&B, country, and church (both black and white)... Q (10/01/1991) 3.5 Stars - Good Plus - ...full of what Morrison does best...rollicking R&B boogie, hushed folk-rock, swinging jazz, and Irish folk... Down Beat (01/01/1992) Highly Recommended - ...more diverse than all nine '80s albums put together... Spin (11/01/1991)
