van morrison - caravan (studio-1970) side 1 of moondance is one of the greatest sides EVER, period

Might be the greatest ending 2 minutes to a song that's ever been done (starting at 3:00) ... but every second of this song is f***ing brilliant.

'and the barefoot gypsy boy round the campfire sing and play ... and the woman tells us of her ways'

Of course, I have to recommend you TURN IT UP, TURN IT UP ... so ya know ... it's got soul!
