Van Morrison uskoro objavljuje trostruko izdanje s 31 neobjavljenom pjesmom iz doba Bang Recordsa
Legay Recordings će 29. travnja objaviti trostruko izdanje Van Morrisona i njegovih radova za Bang Records, izdavačku kuću koja je kratko bila aktualna, a za koju je ovaj irski glazbenik snimio rane solo radove.
Kako piše American Songwriter, Na izdanju pod nazivom “The Authorized Bang Collection” nalaze se originalne master snimke iz Bang sessiona, snimljenje u New Yorku 1967. godine, među kojima su i “Brown Eyed Girl” i “Madame Geeorge”. Na drugom CD-u će se nalaziti rijetke snimke nastale iz spomenutih sessiona. Treći CD naziva “Contractual Obligation Session” uključivat će 31 kratku pjesmu koje će doživjeti prvo službeno izdanje. Te pjesme su do sada bile objavljivane na raznim bootleg, odnosno neslužbenim izdanjima.
Inače, vlasnik ove izdavačke kuće, Bang Records, je bio Bert Berns, producent i tekstopisac koji je autor hitova kao što su “Twist And Shout” ili “Here Comes The Night”. Umro je 1967. godine, nakon čega je Van Morrison potpisao ugovor s Warner Bros.
