Van Morrison's 1971 Concert History

In 1958, at just thirteen years old, Van Morrison, then known as "Van the Man," began his musical career performing with Irish showbands. Between 1964 and 1966, Van Morrison was the lead singer of a Belfast-based rock band called "Them." With Them, Morrison began touring throughout the UK and US. After leaving in 1966, Van Morrison began what has become one of the most successful music careers in history. After "Brown Eyed Girl" was released in 1967, Morrison catapulted to number 10 on the US Billboard Hot 100 charts. For more than half a century since Van Morrison has released dozens of studio albums and hundreds of singles to much critical acclaim and commercial success. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1993 and the Songwriter's Hall of Fame in 2015.
