Sa svog novog albuma dueta, Van Morison je za singl odabrao pesmu “Irish Heartbeat” koju izvodi sa Markom Noflerom.
“Naša saradnja nije toliko iznenađujuća, jer je i on radio pesme u ovom stilu. Irish Heartbeat smo, u stvari, snimili u njegovom studiju, koji je vrata do vrata sa mojim studijom”, rekao je Morison o duetu sa pevačem Dire Straitsa.
Morison će 24. marta objaviti album “Duets: Re-Working the Catalogue“. U pitanju je 16 pesama iz njegovog opusa koje je ponovo snimio u saradnji sa muzičarima poput Bobija Vomaka, Džoš Stoun, Stiva Vinvuda, Majkla Bublea, Džordža Bensona, pa čak i sa svojom ćerkom Šanom.
