Van Morrison tells Cerys about revisiting his childhood passion of rock 'n' roll for his latest album Accentuate The Positive.
Cerys' weekly round up of the blues you need to hear, from all around the world and in all shapes and sizes!
This week, Cerys catches up with Van Morrison, who for his 45th studio album Accentuate The Positive has been revisiting his childhood love of rock 'n' roll. Growing up in Belfast, Van was inspired by 20th-century blues and rock 'n' roll, listening to Fats Domino, Chuck Berry and Johnny Kidd and the Pirates. The new album features guest contributions from the late Jeff Beck, Chris Farlowe and Taj Mahal.
Van Morrison shares of the stories behind the classic tracks, and Cerys also asks Van some quick fire questions to find out more about him and his life, both in music and away from it.
