Van Morrison - His Band & The Street Choir [Turquoise]

Van Morrison's His Band & The Street Choir gets a vibrant splash of color with this 140g turquoise vinyl reissue that’s as groovy to look at as it is to spin. Originally released in 1970, this feel-good record captures Van at his most joyful and freewheeling, blending soul, R&B, and folk into an infectious celebration of sound.

Opening with the irresistible groove of “Domino,” the album sets the tone with upbeat horn sections and Van’s signature vocal swagger. Tracks like “Blue Money” and “Call Me Up in Dreamland” carry a soulful, almost gospel-like energy that’s both playful and deeply rhythmic. It's the kind of record that makes you want to dance barefoot in your living room with a glass of something strong in hand.

What makes this album a standout in Van’s discography is its looseness—recorded with a new ensemble, the "Street Choir" brought a raw, spontaneous energy that gives each track a fresh, unfiltered vibe. You can almost hear the smiles behind the mic.

This turquoise edition isn’t just a collector’s delight—it’s a must-have for fans who appreciate the upbeat side of Morrison’s genius. Whether you're rediscovering this classic or spinning it for the first time, it’s a radiant listen with every turn.
