Is Van Morrison's Voice Fading? A Review of His Recent Performance on ASL

  • Thread starter turbo
  • Start date
In summary, Van Morrison's early music remains popular despite his weak voice. However, he has an impressive band with talented members such as a skilled Dobro/steel guitar player, a good fiddler, and a decent organist. The conversation also mentions how in the past, the speaker and their sister would perform tight-harmony versions of popular songs with Van Morrison, quickly filling the dance floor. Despite his weak voice, Van Morrison still delivers a punchy performance, but it seems he may struggle with extended notes due to potential health issues. Overall, the show is still enjoyable.

Van's voice is weak, but he has an impressive band, including a blond lady on Dobro/steel guitar who is pretty good and a good fiddler and a decent organist, too.

When I was running open-mike jams years back, and my sister showed up (she's the lead vocalist for her band), we would launch into tight-harmony versions of "Wild Nights" and "Brown-Eyed Girl" and fill the dance floor in seconds. Van Morrison's early music is still very popular.

Unfortunately, yes. He still has his punchy delivery, but it seems like he lacks the wind for the follow-through, extended notes, etc. Maybe he was dealing with a cold when he recorded that ASL segment, or perhaps he's a smoker and the cigarettes have taken their toll. Still an enjoyable show.
