After leaving 60s rockers Them, this Irish R&B singer had his ups and downs, but at his best he was—and still is—pure dynamite. The woglist here is packed with blues, jazz, R&B, and Van the Man’s distinctive vocals. Even the mellower songs fairly fly, with Come Running, ironically, the only break in the middle. If Astral Weeks is too much for you, feel free to cut it, even if it is a beautiful song.
