@ghosthouse Those are not only some of Van’s best, but they also happen to be among my all time favorite CDs.
|
@ghosthouse Guru is also my personal favorite which has been on regular rotation since 86’ when it was released. Veedon Fleece is a close second along with Astral Weeks, Moondance, Saint Dominic’s Preview and Poetic Champions. Being extremely prolific, I also have lots of Van in my collection from his later years. Unfortunately, I feel that none of his more recent releases come close to matching his prime output from the 70s and 80s.
