Sorry to all the Van the Man fans who enjoyed his 2007 concert in Glastonbury, but VAN MORRISON / POLYDOR have removed these videos. Ah well - it was only a matter of time - I suppose.

On the other hand, If it seems like we have things in common, e.g. you like jazz, rock, blues, GNAOUA, or just if it seems that you have that quirkyness that appeals, then don't hesitate. I'll tell you thgou, if I go to your site and see that you've received numerous comments in the past few hours thanking you profusely for offering your "friendship", then pardon me if I ignore you. OK?
Very thanks, to emphasize (in Images), these cultures and their musics !
Close to eyes - Close to the Heart !
