Product Description

Van Morrison's "Hymns to the Silence," released on September 24, 1991, under his own label, is a profound and introspective journey into the soul of one of music's most enigmatic artists. Clocking in at an impressive 1 hour and 36 minutes, this double album is a testament to Van Morrison's enduring artistry and his ability to blend spiritual themes with soulful melodies.

The album opens with "Professional Jealousy" and closes with "It Must Be You," offering a rich tapestry of tracks that explore themes of love, faith, and the complexities of life. Standout tracks like "I Can't Stop Loving You" and "By His Grace" showcase Morrison's signature blend of gospel and blues, while "Green Mansions" and "Pagan Streams" delve into more contemplative and mystical territories. The album also features a hauntingly beautiful rendition of the traditional hymn "Just a Closer Walk with Thee" in "See Me Through, Pt. II / Just a Closer Walk with Thee."

Van Morrison's vocals are as powerful and evocative as ever, carrying the listener through a landscape of emotional depth and spiritual reflection. The instrumentation is equally compelling, with lush arrangements that complement Morrison's voice perfectly. "Hymns to the Silence" is not just an album; it's an experience that invites the listener to pause, reflect, and connect with the deeper aspects of life and faith. Whether you're a longtime fan of Van Morrison or a newcomer to his music, this album is a must-listen that will leave a lasting impression.

This 2LP set is housed in a gatefold.

  • Van's Timeless Bluesy Masterpiece

    4 out of 5 stars
    fvraanpuoja3 October 2025United States🇺🇸

    Bring me back, bring me back, bring me way way way back..." Gentle, bluesy, and incredibly intense, this album is impossible to ignore. I'm tempted to say it's his best work, but it's certainly among his finest. His lyrics don't provide clear answers, but they offer profound insights that let you find your own. He's assembled a fantastic band that seems to perfectly grasp his vision for this moment. Van has a recurring theme here—his endless misadventures, his disdain for the music industry, and his longing for his childhood in Belfast. Van has had his share of troubles with the music industry; they once even tried to frame him with drugs. He's sung about this before, and each time, it brings a smile to my face knowing he's outsmarted their tricks for over forty years. As for his youth, it's unclear if he's singing about his real past or an imagined one. From exploring his other songs on this topic, it's a fascinating listen. Overall, this is an outstanding release that shouldn't be missed. Review by Jenell Kesler
