Release Notes:
--------
Remastered audio, each album also features previously unreleased versions of
several album tracks.

Astral Weeks failed to make the charts when it was released in the fall of 1968.
But 47 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. "Any best-of list is unthinkable - and worthless - without
it," writes Cory Frye in the album's liner notes.

The four unreleased recordings that debut on this deluxe edition highlight the
interplay between Morrison and the quartet that joined him in the studio -
bassist Richard Davis, guitarist Jay Berliner, percussionist Warren Smith, Jr.,
and Modern Jazz Quartet drummer Connie Kay. These bonus tracks include the first
take of "Beside You," the full version of "Slim Slow Slider," and a stripped
back version of "Madame George" that emphasizes the vibraphone.
