I expect that a lot of people will review Astral Weeks and Moondance so I thought that I would tackle this one. It's generally thought of as an OK Van LP not one of his best but pretty high up on his long list. I am comparing this to my an original CD copy and to a used LP that has seen better days. It is not often that anything shocks me, but having spent some time with this LP over the last couple of weeks, I can only say that this is the best possible release of this LP, and even if the second side dips slightly on song writing quality it is still a wonderful item and one that you will need on your shelf when the final reckoning comes!
