Free Music Notes for Keep It SimpleFree Music Review: Soul of Talent Hit: 5 StarsOnce again Van Morrison proves why his longevity in the music biz is well deserved. With his distinctive voice and lush musicianship, this new effort ranks right up there with his classics ("Moondance", "Poetic Champions Compose", etc.). Highly recommended.
Free Music Review: lost highway is apt Hit: 1 StarsI first saw Van live in 1967. I have been a fan for more than 40 years. In my opinion, this is his most banal and aimless recording ever. The last recording that moved me was "Back on Top". My son (a musician) and I were lamenting Van's missing muse. My advice is for Van to record again when (if) he finds her.
Free Music Review: Dull as dishwater Hit: 1 StarsWhat's with this guy? His recent output is all interchangable, tedious riffs that could have been written by anyone. There's nothing distinctive (other than the ageless voice) and nothing you haven't heard before on this album. Save your dough or, if you simply must buy a Van Morrison album, get a copy of "Veedon Fleece" and revel in what this artist used to produce. Now he's simply tedious.
Free Music Review: From an Van the Man Fan Hit: 3 StarsWhile this is a solid presentation of straight-ahead blues and R&B, it lacks the creative and emotional flair of Van's greatest work, which has been mostly lacking since the mid 90's.
Free Music Review: Like it very much. Hit: 4 StarsI only have a few of his albums and love them all including this one. I listen to it often in the car. It is quintessential Van Morrison.
