After a young Van Morrison left his Belfast R&B-pop band Them following a couple of U.K. hits in "Gloria" and "Here Comes the Night," American producer-songwriter Bert Berns brought him to New York for 48 hours in early 1967 to record the tracks that would become Blowin' Your Mind! Berns died shortly thereafter, but the tracks he cut included the song that launched Morrison's solo career--the U.S. top 10 hit "Brown Eyed Girl." Most of these songs have been released on early Morrison compilations, including some on this same label. But this is the original album (plus alternate takes) in its original format with the great psychedelic artwork, and it contains some youthful vocal magic on the soul standard "He Ain't Give You None," the stark and graphic "TB Sheets," and the strange and wonderful "Goodbye Baby (Baby Goodbye)." This was undoubtedly Morrison's first period of transition. After the release of Blowin' Your Mind! he moved to Cambridge, Massachusetts, to work on his next album, the landmark Astral Weeks. --John Sutton-Smith --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.

Customer Reviews:
Necessary for your rock collection.......2007-02-11
Van Morrison was actually an excellent vocalist, and a few cuts on this album prove his abilities. Unfortunately, he makes an early attempt at rap, which adds nothing to the program. Brown-Eyed Girl is a classic, and there are a few other cuts nearly as good. If you collect classic rock, this album is a must, even though it is mediocre. However, Van Morrison is NOT a mediocre performer or songwriter. The CD is worth buying.
IT AINT ALL ABOUT BROWN EYED GIRL.......2005-09-20
Since I've heard that song Ten thousand bagillion times since I was like two years old, I can't say that BROWN EYED GIRL really gets me all that excited. You know, its cool.
VAN MORRISONs first solo record is probably my favorite of VANS. I like others, (though definatley not all of his highly ecclectic collection).
This is an "on-the-fly" sounding album, where BROWN EYED is the only song that actually sounds produced. DONT BE FOOOLED, this was no accident. This is how it was s'posed to sound.
VAN still had the raw voice in him from his THEM days ( check out a THEM collection also, very cool ) yet was becoming more refined. Somewhere in the middle we get these rambling, half singing, half talking rants where the band rocks on half blues half jazz jams. Together it makes a hell of a package.
THERE ARE PACKAGES out there that contain this album, less BROWN EYED and more jam material under different names but BLOWIN YOUR MIND is the original cut.
NOTEWORTHY:
TB SHEETS: is absolutely the JAM! I cant say anymore, you may have seen it featured in the opening credits of BRINGING OUT THE DEAD, the movie with Nicholas cage.
RO RO ROSY: another good jam
MIDNIGHT SPECIAL: good stuff.
SHAME on the bonus cuts, there are a lot of tracks that can be found on other mixes of this album that are not here and instead of all alternate cuts there could have been some of these. IN THE BACKROOM is a track that is greatly missed here.
P.S the one star rating was a mistake, I'd change it if I could, but it actually gets 4 1/2. The only reason it ain't five is cuz no IN THE BACKROOM.
i love this album.......1999-12-14
I think "Brown Eyed Girl" is a great pop radio hit, but my favorite song on the album is "TB Sheets". Probably Van Morrison's all time best song, "TB Sheets" is about how Van watches his girlfriend die from tuberculosis and all the feelings that go through his mind at that time. This song is very personal to me because I've had a similar event happen to me in the past few days.
Fine & dandy.......1999-12-10
Sure, it's Van Morrison. With his raspy blues voice and swaggering lyrics, that seem to get lost numerous times in the music within this album. It's a raw record, with many of the songs recorded on improv, but still, it's worth a listen. If only for the Berns number Goodbye Baby, which is a 3 minute CCR rave up, before Fogerty was every humming about Suzie Q or that crazy Proud Mary prowling down the Mississippi River. If not for undeniably one of the greatest rock songs ever, Brown Eyed Girl. If only for the excellent remastering Legacy did when they cleaned this record up. The quality is tremendous, and the songs come alive like they never did on the older T.B.'s Sheets and the numerous bootlegs that offer the same thing here, but with a minimal quality. If you love Them, you must pickup this record. There are numerous improv blues numbers, and Morrison's lyrics may not be poetic, but they'll get a laugh or two. "I've done more for you, than your daddy's already done". Recomended, but pick up Astral Weeks & Moondance first.
This man is the greatest ever!.......1998-12-17
Brown-eyed girl ws always my favorite. You just have to love his music now. He has eaten the dirtand now he spits it out he is so changed and his music and lyrics say so. His music now as always is so beautiful that I could cry. You have to be able to relate to this man in order to appreciate his message. I have never heard a song of his that I did not like.This cd is excellent.
