Free Music Notes for No Guru, No Method, No Teacher
Free Music Review: A Great Escape Album
Hit: 5 Stars
As a long-time Van fan who pretty well owns his whole catalog, No Guru stands as my all-time favorite Morrison album, and is definitely deserving of 5 star status. Turn down the lights, sip some wine, and let the enchanting music of this masterpiece take you to some other place.
No Guru, No Method, No Teacher Poster
Longtime Van Morrison fans may prefer the Belfast bard's tougher, emphatically R&B-driven work, yet it's his lusher, mid-'80s output that helped him consolidate the scrappy gains made in the prior decades. The once-heightened polarity between the earthy and the ethereal seemed muted on albums that traded in a softer-focus, romantic mysticism mirrored by the expanded scale of Morrison's band and arrangements, and left room for him to dabble in instrumental compositions or his renewed love of sax and piano. No Method, No Guru, No Teacher proves among the more durable, convincing chapters in this era, carrying a now-familiar array of symbolic touchstones (the Celtic legacy of "Tir Na Nog" or an extended instrumental allusion to a hymn set to William Blake's musings on England) and offering two of Morrison's better meditations on redemption, "In the Garden" and "A Town Called Paradise," which echoes the fevered waltz-time trance of "Astral Weeks" itself. --Sam SutherlandBlues Music CDs
