Why is this good?

I listened to this and was pretty underwhelmed desu.
It's not bad, just not something that interested me.
Pink Moon and Goodbye and Hello are much better Folk albums imo

The title track is really nice, but after Cypress Avenue I feel that it loses all direction

I dig Jazz and blues, and honestly, while I do enjoy this album and still give it a spin now and again, it is sloppy. From what I've read about its recording it was done in only a couple of takes and with random studio musicians. Van Morrison's vocal delivery are the only real saving grace, the overall instrumentation and production are not great. I recall one specific passage where the top of the mix is a fucking auto-harp playing quarter notes, it sounds like the musician is trying to figure out what the fuck is going on and that is pretty much a theme for the whole record, the musicians sound like they needed more time to flesh out their parts.
