When Van Morrison released 1986's NO GURU, NO METHOD, NO TEACHER, he'd spent the better part of the '80s rediscovering himself through spiritual pursuits ranging from born-again Christianity to dabblings with Scientology. Morrison's introspection led to his writing songs for GURU pertaining to everything from actively re-exploring his roots ("Got To Go Back") to the spiritual battle between good and evil ("Here Comes The Knight"). Part of this rebirth involved a heavy dose of Celtic mysticism in the shape of "Tir Na Nog" and "In The Garden," a song which included the album's title in its lyrics in an off-handed swipe at those critics trying to trivialize his religious explorations. Although the heavy-duty imagery on this record left many fans of Morrison's lighter, swinging '70s material puzzled, the marriage of beautiful musical arrangements and magical lyrical compositions makes NO GURU an overlooked gem in the canon of the Belfast Cowboy.
