U prodaji je novi album Van Morrisona “Duets: Re-Working The Catalogue” (RCA Records/Menart). Ovo je njegov 35. studijski album. Van Morrison i prijatelji odabrali su nekoliko njegovih pjesama iz bogatog kataloga od 360 pjesama iz dosadašnje karijere.
Legendarni glazbenik odabrao je koncept u kojem neki od umjetnika koje osobito cijeni s njim izvode odabrane pjesme na jedan malo drukčiji način. Album je sniman u njegovom rodnom gradu Belfastu i Londonu. Društvo su mu bili raznoliki glazbenici i sve je to rezultiralo svježim aranžmanima. Album je najavljen singlom “Real Real Gone” featuring Michael Bublé. Album su producirali Van Morrison, Don Was i Bob Rock. Morrisonu se uz kćer Shanu Morrison u duetima priključio još niz vrhunskih glazbenika: Bobby Womack, Steve Winwood, Mark Knopfler, Taj Mahal, Mavis Staples, Michael Bublé, Natalie Cole, George Benson, Gregory Porter, Clare Teal, P.J. Proby, Joss Stone, Georgie Fame, Mick Hucknall, Chris Farlowe.
