[edit] Songs

All of the songs on the album had been previously released by Morrison, and most were recorded by him before being used in a movie. Two date back to his group Them, before he began to record as a solo artist. Two of the recordings, however, were previously unreleased, including a version of "Brown Eyed Girl" recorded specifically for the collection. There is a version of this album available for download on iTunes that contains the song "These are the Days". This song was used in the motion picture "Nine Months", & appears on the original album Avalon Sunset.
