Van Morrison, born on August 31, 1945 in Belfast, is a Grammy Award-winning Northern Irish singer, songwriter, author, poet and multi-instrumentalist. He has been a professional musician since the late 1950s and is known for his skills on various instruments including guitar, harmonica, keyboards, drums and saxophone.

Starting his career as the lead singer of the Northern Irish band Them, Morrison gained fame with their hit song "Gloria" in 1964. Later on, he embarked on a successful solo career which earned him numerous accolades.

Morrison's contributions to music have been recognized by institutions such as the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame. He has also been ranked among the greatest artists of all time by VH1 and Rolling Stone Magazine. His talent as a songwriter was acknowledged by Paste Magazine while Q Magazine praised his singing abilities.

Warner is a renowned music publishing company and a division of the Warner Music Group. With its origins dating back to 1811, when Chappell & Company was founded as a music publishing company and instrument shop in London's Bond Street, Warner/Chappell has grown to become one of the largest music publishers in the industry.

Established in 1987 after Warner Communications acquired Chappell & Co., Warner/Chappell boasts an impressive catalog of over one million songs and represents more than 65,000 talented songwriters. Having operated under the name Warner/Chappell Music for over three decades, the company recently rebranded itself as *Warner Chappell Music* in May 2019, unveiling a fresh new logo.

With various name variations such as *Warner/Chappell*, *Warner-Chappell*, *Warner Chapell*, and *Warner Chappel*, this label continues to make significant contributions to the music industry by nurturing and promoting exceptional talent worldwide.

Astral Weeks failed to make the charts when it was released in the fall of 1968 but years later the album has achieved a near-mythic status across generations of listeners who have 'ventured in the slipstream' and fallen under the music's spell.
