On this week's episode, we revisit an artist we discussed during our first season - Van Morrison when we talked about his 1974 album Veedon Fleece. This time we discuss his 1986 LP No Guru. No Method, No Teacher. Morrison is known for making albums rich in spiritual themes and Celtic lore. Around the time of No Guru, he was also writing songs from the perspective of a curmudgeonly angry guy complaining that "copycats have ripped off his songs". While this album has more than it should of the latter, it is also steeped in the former, with lush string arrangements, beautiful oboe and cor anglais parts (played by the Dream Academy's Kate St. John), and a band firing on all cylinders. It is an album of thematic contrasts, held together by its production; and one portending things to come for Morrison. It is also an album cited by many as a favorite among Van Morrison album.
