I haven't liked or bought a Van Morrison LP in over 20 years, but when I heard Roll With The Punches, I was tempted to buy it and did! I have found Van's voice to be mumbly and shouty and the mateial repetitive. I think his voice is crystal clear on Roll With The Punches and the playing is impeccable and the choice of songs is excellent!

Try the live in San Francisco album if you get the opportunity.

I think he's a taste well worth acquiring.

I have 15 or so LPs of Van Morrison and love them. Saw him in The Olympia in 1974 (amazing) and in The National Stadium a couple of times. I just went off his voice from the mid 90s onwards, but heard a track off Roll With The Punches and thought this is more like the old Van so I bought it.

That’s great.
I really like the recent deluxe version of “the healing game” too.
