Reviews for Keep 'Er Lit: New Selected Lyrics

"""[Keep 'Er Lit] features over 120 songs from Van The Man's storied career, from the seminal Astral Weeks, through recent albums such as Roll With The Punches and The Prophet Speaks. To see these songs presented as prose and poetry once serves to prove yet again that Van Morrison is one of the greatest singer-songwriters ever. With an introduction by Hughes and a forward from Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Paul Muldoon, this is an absolute must have for an Van Morrison fan. -- Interrobang"
