Negative Positive
Title: Excellent exploration of roots rock.
Review: It's always interesting to hear artists talk about their influences. Here, Van Morrison pays tribute to the music that turned him on to rock and roll by doing a duet (several actually) with the sister of one of rocks creators.It may not be the contemplative music you normally hear from Van Morrison, but it wasn't intended to be. It is nothing more than a collection of songs played by a musician having fun. It is nothing less than great. Anyone who complains about the country feel just doesn't understand where rock and roll came from. Thankfully, Van Morrison does.
