Van Morrison, London 3-21-1982 (SBD)

This concert features several songs from the Beautiful Vision album
that was released just a month before this show.  The Beautiful Vision
album had the same band members.  Paul Charles, who managed Morrison's business affairs at the time, commented that

"The idea behind the Dominion residencies "was not to 'come into town, do one show, get all the press down, get the radio and TV and record-company people".   "The best thing that he does is perform live. I think the Dominion concerts got a lot of coverage, and attention, without him having to do something he didn't like."

 Morrison's love of live performing was reignited by this set of concerts and he commented at the time that it was "more like appearing in a play, going to the theatre and doing your job every day - which I prefer to touring because that's very fragmented and disorientating." According to Johnny Rogan, these performances "are still regarded by many as his most memorable since the glory days of the Caledonia Soul Orchestra".
