I can't think of any single piece of music that is as mellow as this disc is mellow. When it starts, I almost collapse, knowing that I'm helpless hearing these tunes. Excuse me, I've got to hear it NOW!Free Music Review: How can you not like this album?

This album just amazes me. Van Morrison is a genius. His arrangements are so uniquely attached to his personal that it is truly a mystical experience. This album is on my top ten list of all time. Great gift to anyone.Free Music Review: long time van fan

Van Morrison is my very favorite musician. I think that Poetic Champions Compose is a truly beautiful CD. I also own 22 others. Van is the only musician that I never get tired of.Free Music Review: On the cusp of discovery
Hit: 5 Stars
Although I had heard all of the songs on the radio: Brown Eyed Girl, Domino, Moondance, etc. I never truly listened to Van Morrison until I heard Poetic Champions Compose in the early 90's. The revelation upon listening to this album was that Van Morrison is not just a collection of classic rock hits, but an accomplished and genius composer, lyricist and musician who is firmly planted in the traditions of blues, jazz, Irish folk, rock and in the case of this album and many of those that followed, gospel/spiritual.
This album is his most coherent and complete recording, in my opinion, since Astral Weeks. Like Astral Weeks, the album does not yield classic hits, but instead communicates a consistent mood and sentiment throughout. Poetic Champioins reveals a man beginning to see the light at the end of a spiritual search. His peace is fully realized in future albums such as Enlightenment, but in Poetic Champions you find an artist on the cusp of a tremendous discovery.
A beautiful record.

This is a great CD. I love all the songs. Queen of the Slipstream is a great song and Someone like You is a really sweet love song.... Spanish Steps is just beautiful. I love all things Van Morrison- but this is just great.
