Our Take

Let's take a trip back in time to 1968, when Van Morrison served up his soulful masterpiece, "Astral Weeks." This expanded edition is like finding an extra scoop of your favourite gelato - indulgent and utterly delicious.

Morrison's ethereal vocals transport you to a dreamy landscape filled with jazz-infused folk melodies and poetic lyrics that make you want to curl up by the fireplace with a glass of red wine and ponder the meaning of life.

The added bonus tracks on this edition give us a glimpse into the creative process behind this iconic album, showcasing Morrison's raw talent and musical genius. It's like being invited into the recording studio for an intimate jam session with the man himself.

From the hauntingly beautiful "Sweet Thing" to the introspective "Madame George," each track carries its weight in emotional depth and musical complexity. It's a journey you won't want to end, like a never-ending spiral of musical brilliance.

So, grab your headphones, dim the lights, and let Van Morrison's "Astral Weeks" sweep you off your feet and into a mesmerising world of sound and soul. Trust me, you won't regret it. This is a classic album that deserves a prime spot in your music collection. Enjoy the ride, it's a wild one.
