Song history

This song had a long history with Hooker and Morrison over the years. It was covered by Van Morrison's band Them on their debut album, The Angry Young Them in 1965.[5] The album's sleeve had a comment on the song which read: "John Lee Hooker hailed as one of the greatest R&B singers in the world wrote 'Don't Look Back'....Perhaps it isn't so extraordinary that this soulful ballad sounds uncannily like a Morrison original as the two men have a lot in common." Them's version was also included in songs hand-picked by Morrison on his second greatest hit album, The Best of Van Morrison Volume Two.[6] A live performance in 1979 was also one of the songs featured on Van Morrison's video Van Morrison in Ireland in 1981.[7]

Cover versions

The Australian group The Black Sorrows covered the song for their debut studio album, Sonola (1984).[8]
