   Sir Van Morrison has confirmed that his 40th studio album will be 
released in December - it’s his second this year and again he’s working 
with the acclaimed jazz organist and trumpeter Joey De Francesco. The 
new project is called ‘The Prophet Speaks’ and will feature six original
 compositions from the pair alongside covers written by Sam Cooke, John 
Lee Hooker, Solomon Burke and more. At the age of 73, he told Jazz FM: 
“It was important for me to get back to recording new music as well as 
doing some of the blues material that has inspired me from the 
beginning. Writing songs and making music is what I do, and working with
 great musicians makes it all the more enjoyable.”

The track listing is as follows, with the lead single ‘Got to go where love is’ out now…

1.    Gonna Send You Back To Where I Got You From (Eddie "Cleanhead" Vinson, Leona Blackman)

2.    Dimples (John Lee Hooker, James Bracken)

4.    Laughin’ and Clownin’ (Sam Cooke)

11.    Love Is A Five Letter Word (Gene Barge)
