Man, what a gem did I just find! Here’s a fabulous interview with Van Morrison, conducted for Dutch TV by saxophonist Candy Dulfer. Who knew this guy could be so talkative?

Also included are a couple of great clips of Dulfer and Morrison playing together, once just Van with his guitar and Candy with her sax, and then onstage at a show.

I’ve never, ever, seen Morrison like this, and thought it might be a revelation for some of his other fans here too. Enjoy.
