"Keep It Simple" is Morrison's first album of new material
since 2005, and the first in several years in which he wrote
all 11 songs specifically for one album.
In the interim the legendary artist had a year that may be unprecedented for any living artist, having released three separate collections of his hits, with the latest, "Still On Top" entering the UK charts at #2 and selling platinum,proving the ongoing appetite for his unrivaled work.
His music has always incorporated the widely varied influences he heard and absorbed since his childhood days on the streets of Belfast- long before the bands of his youth and his initial breakthrough with "Them". On "Keep It Simple",Morrison honors all those varied influences -jazz, folk, blues, Celtic, country, soul and gospel - at times melding them all together at once in his own signature sound.
"I felt I had something to say with these songs..."explains Morrison. There is a definite theme that recurs throughout the album, especially in the title track.
In keeping with that idea, "Keep It Simple" does not boast the big horns or string arrangements of some of Morrison's previous work.What it does feature are gorgeous songs rich with emotion, depth and beauty.（mp3zzz上摘的，懒得翻译了）
