Van Morrison and the Chieftans: Irish Heartbeat (1988)

Untitled
Two previously-released Van tracks appear on this collaboration. They are Irish Heartbeat -- originally from Inarticulate Speech of the Heart -- and Celtic Ray -- originally from Beautiful Vision. The rest are traditional tunes. I like this record very much, even though I had paid (and continue to pay) zero attention to the Chieftans. I am (or was) a big fan of the Pogues, by the way.
