  Tupelo Honey Morrison, Van     Description: 1983 White logo label in gatefold. "Tupelo Honey," released in 1971, is the fifth studio album by Northern Irish singer-songwriter Van Morrison. The album showcases a blend of folk, rock, and soul, reflecting Morrison's transition from the jazz-influenced sound of his previous work to a more pastoral and organic musical exploration. The record includes notable tracks such as "Wild Night," which became a Top 40 hit, and the title track "Tupelo Honey," a tender love song that has since become one of Morrison's signature tunes. The album's lyrical content often draws on themes of domestic bliss and rural tranquility, inspired by Morrison's life in Woodstock, New York at the time of its creation. The vinyl release of "Tupelo Honey" is notable for its warm, rich sound quality that complements the album's relaxed and intimate atmosphere. The cover art features a photograph of Morrison with his then-wife Janet "Planet" Rigsbee riding a horse, adding to the album's rustic and idyllic mood. The production, led by Morrison himself along with Ted Templeman, includes contributions from a group of seasoned musicians who enhance the album's diverse yet cohesive sound. "Tupelo Honey" remains a beloved work in Morrison's extensive catalog.     Artist: Morrison, Van     Label Warner Bros. Records     Condition:
