The final album of Van Morrison's remarkably prolific and innovative 1968-1974 period (followed by three years of silence), Veedon Fleece brings the singer full circle, returning him to the introspection and poignancy of Astral Weeks. Composed following his sudden divorce from wife Janet Planet and subsequent retreat from the .

Van Morrison - Veedon Fleece (1974). Songs in album Van Morrison - Veedon Fleece (1974).

Veedon Fleece is the eighth studio album by Van Morrison, released in October 1974. It is Celtic, acoustic and heavily influenced by Morrison's Irish trip.

Veedon Fleece is the masterpiece you haven’t heard of, an album Van Morrison himself has barely played live and hardly acknowledged since it came out. A mystical, spiritual, lyrical miracle, Veedon Fleece is Morrison’s eighth album, recorded shortly after a divorce, and before he’d take what was then the longest break in his recording career. Veedon Fleece is spiritually weary and existentially uplifting, an album that in its abstract poetry and somber flutes and airy instrumentation feels like a friend picking you up when you’re at your lowest point
