THEM - Don't Look Back (1965)
All Van Morrision fans out there will of course know Van started of as part of the magnificent Them. They recorded two albums in the mid sixties and they are a great indication of where Van was heading. They are both nothing short of brilliant. Van's voice is raw and gives you goose bumps with its' sheer power.and quality.
Both these tracks are personal favourites, but the albums are filled with high quality tracks. Check out Them's cover of Dylan's I'ts all Over Now Baby Blue and you will see where Beck got his sample for Jack-Ass.
Listen also to Here Comes The Night probably one of the most perfect pop/rock singles ever. Not far behind is Gloria, another stormer.
There is a compilation album of both Them albums containing extra tracks and it is a must have in any collection. It is called The Story of Them (1997)
