Van Morrison Live Performance Featuring Here Comes The Night and Baby Please Don't Go
In 2000, Van Morrison was riding high on a wave of creativity and introspection, having just released his album 'Back on Top' the previous year, which marked a return to form for the iconic artist. This live recording from July 6, 2000, at Portsmouth Guildhall showcases his masterful ability to blend genres—blues, jazz, and rock—all woven together with his soulful voice. One interesting tidbit is how often he revisits tracks; for example, 'Here Comes The Night' is performed eight times, highlighting his deep connection to his own catalog. The live setting gives fans a unique experience, capturing the raw energy and spontaneity that Morrison is known for. It's a testament to his enduring ability to engage audiences, making each performance feel both familiar and fresh, while revealing the emotional depth that defines his work.
