Van Morrison enjoys almost unparalleled respect in the rock community. His innovation is a thing of ongoing wonderment to his peers. At the same time, his warm musical brogue has remained a constant reference point and safe haven for battered ears. This authoritative biography provides a fascinating insight into Van Morrison's 25-album-strong career, and includes a full discography and 30 carefully researched photographs. After three decades Van Morrison has become more popular han ever in the 1990s, proving that a rock star can improve with age. He is a true musical performer in the age of the soundbite, and an enduring talent in the age of remake and retro. Subtitled 'Inarticulate Speech of the Heart', this story tells how the Belfast boy became one of the world's best-loved and most instantly recognisable voices.
