Van Morrison - Cleaning Windows (Live) at Barton Town Hall, Adelaide

Venue: Thebarton Theatre Location: Adelaide, South Australia, Australia Date: March 2, 1985

In 1985, Van Morrison was in a fascinating phase of his career, following the release of his album "No Guru, No Method, No Teacher," which came out in 1986. This period showcased Morrison's evolution as an artist, melding his signature blend of rock, blues, and jazz in a way that resonated deeply with fans. The live recording of "Cleaning Windows" at the Thebarton Theatre in Adelaide highlights his vibrant performance style—an energetic contrast to the introspective vibes of his recent studio work. Morrison has often drawn from personal experiences in his lyrics, which adds a layer of authenticity to his performances. Interestingly, during this year, he was fostering a return to live performance, reconnecting with audiences worldwide, and this concert exemplifies that rebirth in the live setting.
