Free Music Notes for Tupelo Honey
Free Music Review: Tupelo Honey
Hit: 4 Stars
I've always liked the song Tupelo Honey and was unable to
get my hands on it as it wasn't released on other albums later on. The rest of this album is good for a Morrison fan as
it reaches back before the popular stuff you've heard.
If you're Van Morrison fan, you'll like this one.
Free Music Review: Uplifting, Joyful, and Romantic
Hit: 5 Stars
I bought Tupelo Honey on vinyl back when it was first issued and got years of enjoyment listening to it. Then as time passed, other music became more immediate, and Tupelo Honey languished in my record cabinet. But then in the last couple of years, Van Morrison or his record company decided to remaster and reissue some of his back catalogue, so I jumped at the chance to get this on CD at a very good price.
Tupelo Honey should appeal to anyone who likes Van Morrison on any level. Not only are the songs more "accessible" than much of his later work, the fact that he was still in love at the time this was issued shines through in the music. The tone from start to finish is uplifting, joyful, and romantic.
Those who listened to Top 40 in the early 70s will immediately recognize Wild Night. While good, it is far from the best song on the album. I like the entire recording, but my favorites are the jaunty (Straight to Your Heart) Like A Cannon Ball, Starting A New Life, the loving You're My Woman, and the anticipatory romance of When That Evening Sun Goes Down.
Of all Van Morrison's albums, Tupelo Honey is about as close to Southern music as he gets. It finds Van at the peak of the second period of his solo career. If you like a little romance and a lot of soul, then you should own this if you don't already.

The title says it all with my opinion of Tupelo Honey. Definitely my favorite Van album. It is probably nostaglic for me, because when I was a kid my dad would sing it to me on road trips in his tone death best. The album kills. 'Nuff said.Free Music Review: A great blast from the past!
