Compiled by Morrison himself, this 1993 collection focuses mainly on his work from 1984-1991. Nevertheless, this is a vital introduction to Morrison's later, more idiosyncratic material. Hymns To The Silence.

NotesWhen it comes to 'best of' compilations for an artist like Van Morrison, it's hard to stop at one, so thankfully Universal didn't. His big radio hits and pop-rock-oriented accessible material were featured on the first volume, so here we get to venture a little further into the mystic with the Celtic Blues prophet. What comes across on this collection, which centers on the second half of Morrison's career, is his staunch individualism. As evidenced by spiritually-flavored cuts like 'In the Garden', 'The Mystery' and 'Hymns to the Silence'. When a particular philosophical/musical notion strikes Morrison, he follows it to the end. It's this devotion to the muse that makes Morrison such a vital artist. Morrison couldn't abandon melodicism if his life depended on it, though, so there are also overwhelmingly infectious tunes like 'When Will I Ever Learn to Live in God', the simple, moving 'One Irish Rover' and the rocking 'Real Real Gone'. 15 tracks. Universal.
