 IRISH
HEARTBEAT -VAN MORRISON AND THE CHIEFTAINS (1988) |
| |
 |
| |
'Irish Heartbeat', a collaboration album with Van Morrison,
was Van's first attempt to reconcile his Celtic roots
with his blues and soul music. It was also The Chieftains'
first full blown collaboration album. Although there were
worries about working with a major rock star,
the recording was a success, introducing elements of Van's
unique soul and jazz style singing to traditional songs
and music. This was the beginning of an ongoing successful musical
relationalship between Van and The Chieftains.
'Irish Heartbeat' was nominated for a Grammy Award in
1989, and there followed a tour of Europe and the UK
