Free Music Notes for Hymns to the SilenceFree Music Review: Hymns To The Silence Hit: 5 StarsThis album is amazing and the the title track alone is worth every penny. There is more soulfull spirituality on that one song than any church I've been to in the all my 26yrs.
Free Music Review: Ignore the sound clips! Hit: 5 StarsFor the love of Pete, ignore the sounds clips! This CD is quite extraordinary and the clips simply do not do it justice! Rush out in a buying frenzy!
Free Music Review: Relaxing, Intelligent, Moving, Reflective, Smooth, Melodious Hit: 5 StarsTo name just a few descriptive words . . .When I first bought this album, "Brown Eyed Girl" was about the extent of my VM knowledge. Boy did I learn a lesson: Van the Man has so much more depth than Brown Eyed Girl displays . . . Van takes us through an incredible journey of soul, gospel, blues, jazz, Celtic, and meditative music. The only element that remains constant throughout is that beautiful voice in the foreground . . . Listen to this CD as you are trying to fall asleep. Gems like "Take me Back" will surely transport you to a time or place in your life where there are no such things as "problems." The title track is soothingly angelic, followed immediately by "Hynford Street," which is more a poetry reading than a song, but incredibly moody. It must be an autobiographical piece about his childhood, and his fond memories will certainly transpire to your own fond memories. "Carrying a Torch" "It Must be You" "I Need Your Kind of Loving" are heart-wrenchingly romantic pieces . . ."Some Peace of Mind" and "So Complicated" a little on the jazzy side. . all other songs have some merit to them, but I won't go through all 22 of them. Get the album and find out for yourself! Okay, enough raving . . .I think I'd like to go listen to the album!

Free Music Review: Van's masterpiece? Hit: 5 StarsIn this humble reviewer's view, this is The Belfast Cowboy's consommate masterpiece, even stronger than St. Dominic's Preview or Into the Music. The Man sums up his entire career in this album. Anybody who loves Van's music owes it to himself to buy this album immediately.
