Van Morrison

In August 2001, Van Morrison delivered a spellbinding performance at the Opera House in Cork, Ireland, capturing the essence of his artistic journey. Just prior to this live recording, he released the album 'You Win Again' in 2000, showcasing his bluesy, soulful side and continuing to evolve his sound. This period was instrumental for Morrison, blending rich storytelling with deep emotional resonance in his music, which was evident in the setlist that night, featuring gems like 'Inarticulate Speech of the Heart.' Interestingly, Morrison’s deep connection to Ireland often shines through in his performances, and this concert was no exception. It was a celebration not just of his music but also of his roots, as he effortlessly intertwined his rich catalog with spontaneous moments that truly connected with the audience.
