Astral Weeks
Van Morrison - Astral Weeks - Warner (1968)
Bassist Richard Davis (Sarah Vaughn, Eric Dolphy, et al) starts in the song. Lester Bangs wrote an amazing article about this album which intrigued me enough to take a listen to this album in my mid-20's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtaKVN9687A
