band's sixth and final one with Morrison....
never really called myself a fan...
always thought Michael Hutchence (INXS) was an imitator with his movements and persona...
so, never really a fan but I own two albums, this one obviously and its predecessor "morrison hotel"...
not really much wrong with this album...
contains a lot of brilliant songs IMO, all of which could have been issued as singles with no problem...
sound is quite bluesy on most songs with their original twist on them...
no one sounded like these guys and Morrison's voice is quite unique, not a great voice, simply one of a kind...
all up a real classy affair!
I LOVE THIS ALBUM
