Listened all the way through for the first time in a while last night.

Holy shite what an album.

Anyone else a big fan?

HUGE fan. Van Morrison is one of my biggest musical influences.

I am. What's crazy is that I would argue that his three successive albums are just as good, if not better.

May I suggest "It's Too Late to Stop Now." One of my favorite albums ever. All of the versions of these songs are probably the best ala Little Feat's Waiting for Columbus

"Beside You" is one I particularly like because there's no rhythm whatsoever. Very liquid song with even an inconsistent, random rhyme scheme.

The end of "Slim Slow Slider" when you hear the repeated slap of the neck of the upright bass at the end. Unforgettable sound.

Greatest bass ever on a rock album
