Van Morrison - 1974-02-02 - San Francisco, CA (SBD)

Exactly 4 years to the day after our the Jefferson Airplane concert from Winterland that we posted earlier today, Van Morrison took the stage at that exact same venue.  At just about that same moment, Van released the classic live album It's Too Late Too Stop Now which featured his historic 1973 tour backed by the 11 piece Caledonia Soul Orchestra.  Of course, in typical Van fashion, he had disbanded that group and was playing with a new assortment of musicians for this 1974 tour. He was also testing out material he had written during a 3 week vacation in Belfast back in October 1973, songs which would eventually comprise the album Veedon Fleece, released later in 1974.  So this show from February 2, 1974, 42 years ago today, finds Van in a period of flux, something he too must have released, as his 1977 album follow up to Veedion Fleece would be entitled A Period of Transition!
