Condition: Brand New Ships from: Melbourne Description Release details Tracklist Van Morrison’s Remembering Now is a quietly profound return to form, capturing the contemplative, spiritually inquisitive mood that has marked his best late-era work. Drawing on his signature blend of jazz, Celtic soul, and blues, the album finds Morrison reflecting on memory, creativity, and mortality with warmth and surprising clarity. The arrangements are organic and unhurried, letting his voice—and his vision—guide the experience from start to finish. There’s a directness in the songwriting that recalls albums like Hymns to the Silence, but the production feels looser and more intimate. Tracks like “Stomping Ground” and “Stretching Out” evoke nostalgic landscapes both real and metaphorical, while the nine-minute closer hints at Morrison’s ongoing desire to reach beyond the material world. This isn’t an album chasing relevance—it’s one of an artist who knows exactly who he is and has nothing left to prove. Reviews "This is an album about celebrating the beauty of life... There is also a feeling that, at 79, Morrison wants to look back on all that has happened to him while making the most of the time he has left." — The Times "What might be Morrison's best album since 1991’s Hymns To The Silence." — MOJO "A lush new set has an invigorated Van showing his mystical side." — The Arts Desk "Even Van Morrison’s most ardent fans weren’t sure he could write songs like several that appear on his 43rd studio album, Remembering Now." — Glide Magazine "Remembering Now shows he has reclaimed the magical mystical inspiration many followers missed and is clearly not ready to retire anytime soon." — Rock and Blues Muse Artist: Van Morrison Label: Exile, Virgin Music Group Format: LP Units: 2 Country: UK & Europe Genre: Pop & Rock Style: Rhythm & Blues A1 Down To JoyA2 If It Wasn'T For RayA3 Haven'T Lost My Sense Of WonderA4 Love, Lover And BelovedB5 Cutting CornersB6 Back To Writing Love SongsB7 The Only Love I Ever Need Is YoursB8 Once In A Lifetime FeelingsC9 Stomping GroundC10 Memories And VisionsC11 When The Rains CameD12 ColourblindD13 Remembering NowD14 Stretching Out
