Yeah this is one where I separate the art from the artist, because this is such an amazing album by a very talented musician who happens to be a bellend of a person.



Oh, couldn't agree more. There are so many examples of art and other expressions  in many forms, that transcends the otherwise despicable people that create these works, whether music, print, stage, screen, canvas, sports...

It's good that you're willing to accept that you're "so suck".

This does not sound like 1968.  It's timeless.



It's a trippy and weird song in the best of ways.

I don't care how many times I hear it,  it stops me.

As I move ungracefully from middle age into my seniors years, I find myself striving to live in the same headspace that Van was in when he wrote the amazing songs on Astral Weeks and Moondance. This song never fails to lift me out of my doldrums. I'm so grateful to have his music to carry me through my years. 


Cheers, Laptopdog!

Just back from Ireland.  Walked into a pub in Cork, fire going , a pint and Van the Man on the sound system. What more can you ask for!
