Veedon Fleece is the eighth studio album by Northern Irish singer-songwriter Van Morrison, released in October 1974. Morrison recorded the album in two weeks while living back in Ireland after 7 years in the USA. With his broken marriage in the past, Morrison visited Ireland on holiday for new inspiration, arriving on 20 October 1973. While there he wrote, in less than three weeks, the songs included on the album. It's acutely comparable to Astral Weeks with the same "stream of consciousness" lyrics but musically it is more Celtic, acoustic and heavily influenced by Morrison's Irish trip. It is a mythic album in every sense and an extraordinary album that gains ever more praise year after year and has been referred to as Morrison's "forgotten masterpiece".
