A track-for -track reimagining of Van Morrison's contractual obligation album, recorded to end his contract with Bang records in 1967. Although never officially released until the Complete Bang Sessions compilation in 2002, the music was widely bootlegged and had a kind of legendary status among lovers of the marginal and all things wonky. Thirty one hot slices of spite for your delectation. Enjoy!

Sound of the fire.
A deep and deliberate dissonance.
A flash to those already there.
Friends of minds entwined.

Samhain - Sound Of The Fire

Edmund Spencer's The Faerie Queene
Book 5 Canto 6 verse 5

As if before she had not counted trew.
  For houres but dayes; for weekes, that passed were,
  She told but moneths, to make them seeme more few:
  Yet when she reckned them, still drawing neare,
Each hour did seeme a moneth, & euery moneth a yeare
