Released in 1970, His Band And The Street Choir marked a bold new direction for Van Morrison, moving away from the mystical introspection of Astral Weeks and the jazzy sophistication of Moondance toward a freewheeling R&B and gospel-infused sound. The album was an immediate success with audiences, driven in large part by the irresistible opening track "Domino," a joyous, horn-driven groove that remains one of Morrison's most beloved singles.
Throughout the record, Morrison channels the raw energy of soul and rhythm and blues with an authenticity that few artists could match, delivering performances that feel spontaneous and deeply felt. The interplay between the horns, the rhythm section, and Morrison's expressive voice gives the album a loose, celebratory spirit that stands apart from anything else in his catalog, making it a landmark of early 1970s rock and soul.
