Any takers?
Moondance was a reflection on Morrison's childhood. Not only is it one of his most popular, but it's got some genuinely beautiful songs and really demonstrates his versatility as an artist. It definitely has some low points (don't get me started on Crazy Love), but the high points are some of his most gorgeous. See And It Stoned Me, Into the Mystic, Caravan, Come Running, etc.

Does anyone want to tell me what's so good about
