“Moondance”

Amazing that one of Van Morrison’s most recognizable songs wasn’t released as a single until 1977, seven years after the album of the same name, and then only reached #92. (But, “Into The Mystic” was never issued as a single by him at all.) A fixture of FM rock radio, “Moondance” is just about perfectly arranged. Morrison once said Frank Sinatra wouldn’t have been out of place singing this. One of those tunes that can be appreciated on SO many levels. Who else uses the word “fantabulous?”
