Van Morrison – New Arrangements And Duets (Orange 2-LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Van Morrison's vault runs deep, and this 2024 release pulls from sessions spanning nearly a decade, pairing his singular phrasing with big band arrangements by longtime collaborators Chris White and Paul Moran alongside duet partners who share his reverence for jazz and soul. Willie Nelson and Joss Stone are natural fits in Morrison's world, artists who live inside a song rather than performing it. Orange vinyl for a collection that rewards the kind of close, unhurried listening Van has always demanded.
“This album represents a small percentage of the huge amount of unreleased material we are hoping to roll out in the near future, rather than letting it gather dust in some archive. The big band tracks were recorded in 2014 and the duets more recently. Chris White and Paul Moran individually picked the songs that they wanted to do new band arrangements for. The Willie Nelson and Kurt Elling tracks were recorded in 2018 and 2019, the Curtis Stigers and Joss Stone tracks in 2018.” – Van Morrison
