To record it, Morrison completely bypasses standard pop formulas, opting instead for an open, jazz-influenced framework. Over these intuitive acoustic arrangements, his raw, incantatory vocal performance drives tracks like “Cyprus Avenue,” “Slim Slow Slider,” and the spellbinding title track. That magic was apparent from the first audition, producer Lewis Merenstein recalls in the new liner notes: “It went right through me, and I got the poetry of it. It was just stunning, and I knew I wanted to work with him at that moment.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THE RHINO HIGH FIDELITY SERIES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRhino is synonymous with high-quality reissues, setting the standard with award-winning audio releases for the past 45 years.
