Van Morrison is distraught at how the current music business is running itself. Miffed at how record labels have come to value commerce over live performance, Morrison lamented:Everything is about commercialism these days, not music. When I started out, commercialism was about making a living. You only put out records because you thought you might get more gigs that way, it might raise your profile. You weren't putting out a record because you were making some statement."
Morrison's latest album is Pay the Devil.
