The Boney 500: Album #5
Posted: Mon Dec 19, 2016 11:03 am
And here we go! The last week of the countdown of my all-time favorite albums..by the end of the week, you'll know my favorite album ever!
5. MOONDANCE-VAN MORRISON (1970)
His previous album, "Astral Weeks", often gets the most critical praise, but to be honest, I have never been able to get into it, and
being a Van fan, I have tried and tried...I just don't get it. This one, though...oh, how I love this one. Merging R & B, Jazz, and Folk
elements, the end result is uniquely Morrison. Side One alone is enough to land this in my Top Ten. Hell, "Into The Mystic" alone is
enough to land this in my Top Ten! A rich, rewarding listen.
