Rave On Van Morrison #RaveOnVanMorrison

A veil of pitying embarrassment cloaks some recent outbursts from the man from Belfast. A veil that I will not remove. Instead, I opt to highlight 'Rave On Van Morrison', an initiative by the Irish magazine Hot Press, to celebrate (as well as could be done given the circumstances) the 75th birthday of Sir Van. Over 80 Irish artists—sacred monsters, established names, and various emerging talents—pay tribute, each with a cover. Mostly, home recordings from lockdown (irony intended). Many versions succeed, others less so. But what I like is that all phases of his career are represented. For a Hozier and a Damien Rice choosing 'Moondance', we have a Moya Brennan interpreting a piece from 2002 with her harp, and a Bob Geldof never so bucolic Bob Geldof – I'm Tired Joey Boy (Van Morrison Cover) #RaveOnVanMorrison amidst the landscapes of 'Avalon Sunset'. The interpretation of the instrumental 'Scandinavia' from 'Beautiful Vision', by the folk group Beoga, is remarkable. The reappearances of Leslie Dowdall from In Tua Nua, a band from the '80s that some may remember, and especially Shuhada' Davitt alias Sinéad O'Connor, are surprising. She chooses 'Veedon Fleece' Sinead O'Connor – Who Was That Masked Man (Van Morrison Cover) #RaveOnVanMorrison

The recited part of 'Rave On John Donne' is entrusted to the President of the Republic of Ireland himself.

Of course, among the songs, 'Born To Be Free' is absent, a personal perspective on restrictions and masks, released on September 25 on Spotify. But I would say we can come to terms with that.
 
 
C’è di meglio della Terra: i pianeti superabitabili | MEDIA INAF the whole presentation of new and less new things in science ends with the phrase "perhaps the Earth is not absolutely the best planet for life" .. a phrase that can also be interpreted in a deeper way, let's say...;.) in various ways.. here, I pointed this out to you. :-)

Wonder? Amazement? Sublime? I don't know which adjective to choose.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Moody Blues - New Horizons
My loves from the 60s along with Procol Harum (the true fathers of prog). Well, there are so many bands that released their debut at the end of the 60s... Family, Zappa, Jethro (but let's not be nitpicky AHAH)
 
 
 
 
Album of the year. In my opinion.

Barclay James Harvest - The Song (They Love To Sing)
If this track had been released by Tame Impala, it would be known even in Uganda and would definitely be featured in a car commercial. The Barclays create atmospheres years ahead, pre-chillout, and a lot of magic.
