Now, almost 50 years on, Van Morrison has returned to Cyprus Avenue to perform two concerts on his 70th birthday. Fans travelled from across the world to attend the gigs that were the climax of the EastSide Arts Festival. Morrison performed the first concert at 15:00 BST and before taking to the stage again at 18:00 for a second show. Tickets for both concerts sold out a number of weeks ago. Morrison was born a short distance away at 125 Hyndford Street, just off the Beersbridge Road, on 31 August 1945. His mother Violet was a keen singer, while his father George worked at the Harland and Wolff shipyard, and collected jazz and blues records in his spare time. Element Morrison formed his first group when he was in his early teens and a pupil at Orangefield High School. He had early success with his band Them, but it was his solo album Astral Weeks, recorded over three days in New York in 1968, that brought him global renown. In a recent interview with the Irish Times, Morrison said seven of the eight songs on the album had been written in Belfast. "Writing it, it was always visual, because it was moving between these locations, so Belfast train from Dublin up to Sandy Row," he told interviewer Fintan O'Toole. "It has a strong visual element to it." The song Cyprus Avenue closes side one of the album, while the street is also mentioned in the famous opening to Madame George on side two. Mystical Morrison sings of being "down on Cyprus Avenue, with a childlike vision leaping into view". Cyprus Avenue is about a 10-minute walk from Hyndford Street, and he has described it as "a very mystical place". "It was a whole avenue lined with trees and I found it a place where I could think." ; wholefile md5 checksum file generated by Trader's Little Helper ; generated on September 7, 2015, at 03:32 pm. 7213885e225b69bed90f165c338c509c *VIDEO_TS.BUP 7213885e225b69bed90f165c338c509c *VIDEO_TS.IFO 4108ed5ee065b2bf74d4a4113ad1494b *VIDEO_TS.VOB a028b5e2b1e7a1f11660f015e7b24b17 *VTS_01_0.BUP a028b5e2b1e7a1f11660f015e7b24b17 *VTS_01_0.IFO 126bdd8b2cdbdd13675bcc83ae37d6d3 *VTS_01_0.VOB 4e1b62976dcef98bbb8e92ab8bc3fac2 *VTS_01_1.VOB 5dd07bb39f49ba90f1ddfc2ff8639686 *VTS_01_2.VOB c4c4bda397da3337ba9693968bb258e1 *VTS_01_3.VOB d4d8f11ec68b6e0c2a44d5bee57090ec *VTS_01_4.VOB GSpot Says: DVD VOB format MPEG-2Program Stream << (1 vid, 1 aud) Sys Bitrate 10080 kb/s VBR 8596 kbps I/L TFF PAL 16:9 AC3 0xbd(0x80):48000Hz 384 kb/s tot. stereo (2/0) Play It LOUD!
