Van Morrison who recently notched up his
highest ever UK album chart placing with his ‘Best Of’ collection ‘Still On Top’ – is to reissue his entire back catalogue, starting next year.
Morrison’s 29 remastered albums, from 1971’s Tupelo Honey to 2002’s Down The Road, will be released in stages from January 28 2008.

The first seven albums- all to be released at mid-price – are:
Tupelo Honey
