EVENSONG: Van Morrison - These Are The Days

An exaggerated 'sixties talent, hugely over-rated, especially by himself and his cronies but  just now and again, over forty years, he has forgotten that he thinks he's Ray Charles and has waxed elegiacal to fine and great purpose as he  cries Freedom in the night -  Take It Where You Find It, The Healing Has Begun and this, among his memorable efforts.  For Evensongers.
