Van Morrison
Legacy revisits Van Morrison's seminal 1974 double live album with this release of additional material. The CDs ofVolumes II-IV collect previously unreleased concert recordings from the dates that yielded the original album, while the DVD contains professionally-shot footage from the Rainbow Theatre stand which originally aired on the BBC in the U.K. but has never before been commercially available. The original It's Too Late was compiled by Morrison and co-producer Ted Templeman from eight sets of live performances and was famously free of any subsequent studio overdubs. Volumes II-IV returns to those original performances, first captured on two-inch 16-track analog tapes, as newly remastered by Guy Massey. None of the tracks on this set are duplicated from the performances on the original album.
