“I first saw Van Morrison in the late 60’s at the Capitol Theatre on Ste-Catherine Street. He performed two shows that evening – and he was in full flight by the time the second show was underway.” I’m in conversation with Rubin Fogel, a lifelong fan of Van Morrison’s music, and the promoter for Morrison’s October 1st performance at Salle Wilfred Pelletier in Place des Arts.

Hi Les
Thank you so much for hunting that down. Late 60s is definitely the time frame. I’m sure you nailed it. Ahh....memories. Wonderful. Van the man is still an all time favourite for Jojo and me. I will copy the link and have a read. Thanks again Les.

Les.....they say the Irish are prescient. I just finished my note to you, told my Jojo about it and as we sat here in the living room wouldn’t you know it.....on the radio we hear Moondance by Van start up. Had to share that.
