Complete recording of Van Morrison’s October 6, 1979 concert at the Capitol Theatre in Passaic, New Jersey — one of the most celebrated nights of the «Into the Music» tour, filmed and recorded by the Bill Graham Presents crew. Backed by a full band, with horns from Pee Wee Ellis and Mark Isham and Toni Marcus on violin, Morrison moves from the then-new album material (Kingdom Hall, Bright Side of the Road, Full Force Gale) to the classics (Into the Mystic, Moondance, Tupelo Honey, Brown Eyed Girl, Gloria). At the crossroads of soul, R&B and Celtic folk, this filmed live concert is an essential late-1970s document. Keywords: Van Morrison, Capitol Theatre, Passaic, 1979, live, full concert, filmed live concert, soul.
