In Celebration of the Human Voice - The Essential Musical Instrument

Van Morrison

Born: 1945. Living in: Ireland
Known as "Van the Man", Morrison started his professional career when, as a teenager in the late 1950s, he played a variety of instruments including guitar, harmonica, keyboards and saxophone for various Irish showbands, covering the popular hits of that time. He rose to prominence in the mid-1960s as the lead singer of the Northern Irish R&B band Them, with whom he recorded the garage band classic "Gloria". His solo career began under the pop-hit oriented guidance of Bert Berns with the release of the hit single "Brown Eyed Girl" in 1967. After Berns' death, Warner Bros. Records bought out his contract and allowed him three sessions to record Astral Weeks (1968). Though this album gradually garnered high praise, it was initially a poor seller.

Paul Langford : Have I Told You Lately

The simplicity of the message as well as the passion of the emotion are beautifully captured in this classic pop song. The rhythm of the choral makes it feel super hip and contemporary and the piano part sounds like it could be played on guitar.
