4 out of 5 stars Been there before...   October 18, 2008
A four-star Van Morrison CD for sure, but if you have the 1998 Remaster, don't bother, it's exactly the same, except for the deletion of the re-mastering credits! (Insert your own crass comment here).


4 out of 5 stars Great Sound and Fantastic Performance!   October 13, 2008

Van Morrison's live recordings are always a pleasure to hear anytime and anywhere. A true artist, he never does a song the same way twice. His re-invention of "Beautiful Vision", for example, reveals a touch of Country with a generous helping of classic Soul, thanks to backup singers Katie Kissoon, Blanca Thornton, and Carol Kenyon. "Cleaning Windows" is given a funky treatment from the horn section led by Pee Wee Ellis. "Dweller On The Threshold", "Haunts Of Ancient Peace", "Full Force Gale" - they're all here in one setting, many of them eclipsing their studio counterparts. Van remains a living legend, recording since the early sixties and going strong to this day. Enjoy this re-mastered disc. No bonus material was used on this one, however, but I went ahead and bought it anyway. Great sound and fantastic performance!
