At the same time, his warm musical brogue has remained a constant reference point and safe haven for battered ears.

After three decades Van Morrison has become more popular han ever in the 1990s, proving that a rock star can improve with age. He is a true musical performer in the age of the soundbite, and an enduring talent in the age of remake and retro. Subtitled 'Inarticulate Speech of the Heart', this story tells how the Belfast boy became one of the world's best-loved and most instantly recognisable voices.
