Dec 15, 2021Was never a big fan of Van Morrison or his type of music, but after hearing 'Duper's Delight' I was hooked.
The lyrics are also very good, and extremely relevant to the insane world we're living in today. In fact, they are so good that a certain (((group))) of music journalists have trashed the album, not because of the music, but because they don't like the political message! -

May 28, 2021Exceptional album, both as a musical work and a statement of protest. The current political situation has inspired Van Morrison to a work that is alternately eloquently trenchant and soulfully warm, and his vocals have never sounded better. This is both vintage Van and a ground-breaking record that will probably come to be regarded as a classic.

May 8, 2021What a disappointing and ridiculous effort (if you can even call it that) by Van. You can really tell he's calling it in at this point and has no passion to make music anymore. The only desire is to drop horrible releases like this to us unsuspecting fans for purely financial gain. I would say this marks the end of Van completely. Horrible.

May 8, 2021I love Van as an artist and own the majority of his work but please don't bother with this. It's 28 tracks of pure nonsense. Musically, It's very formulaic and lyrically, he is incredibly repetitive and basic. It is a very uninspired album the worst he has put out since his Duets album.

May 7, 2021For the most part though, and we’re talking in the 90% range, the double-album is a full-on dumpster fire fueled by toxic thoughts, meaningless rants, and a surly attitude.

May 7, 2021Devoted fans who found pleasure in recent records like Keep Me Singing should discover this one will hit home as well, whereas more objective music lovers may probably miss the natural spontaneity and unusual good cheer that arose from The Belfast Cowboy’s 2018 collaborations with jazz keyboardist/bandleader Joey DeFrancesco, You’re Driving Me Crazy and (to an only slightly lesser extent) The Prophet Speaks.

May 7, 2021As always, his saving grace is his expert control of his voice and good musical taste, qualities that prevent Latest Record Project, Vol. 1 from being as sour as its creator.
