Album Review
Although Van Morrison's first solo album is remembered for containing the immortal pop hit "Brown Eyed Girl," Blowin' Your Mind! is actually a dry run for his masterpiece, Astral Weeks. Songs like "Who Drove the Red Sports Car" look to that song cycle, even as "Midnight Special" nods to Morrison's R&B past. But it's the agonizing "T.B. Sheets" — all nine-plus minutes of it — that dominates this record and belies its trendy title and pop association. "T.B. Sheets" takes the blues and reinvents it as noble tragedy and humiliating mortality. It's where Van Morrison emerges as an artist. [Blowin' Your Mind! was superseded in 1991 by Bang Masters, which contains all of its tracks except "He Ain't Give You None," presented in an alternate take, plus Morrison's other recordings for Bang.]
Recent Customer Reviews
One word "Brilliant"
by ImaginationAmazing debut album!
buy the V. Morrison "Bang Masters" on itunes instead
by readtseliotThis record (is amazing for starters, but ) is a re-issue of a re-sissue of songs. This identical collection of songs plus a few others are all available on the "Bang Masters" album. There are some great original liner notes to the Bang Masters album by Bill Flanagan, if you can find them. The price of the records (on itunes at least) is the same too. All of that aside this is an unbelievably great set of early V.M. recordings. T.B. Sheets alone is worth the price of admission.
Van Morrison Is The Best
by MyHeartIsAnArtichokeI have always been inspirationalized (It think I just made up that word) by Van Morrison. For a long time I have listened to his stuff, and I saw that there were no reviews.
Buy the album. Now.
