His 12 Greatest Hits [VINYL]

Search: Soolaimon
by: Neil Diamond

Release Date October 17, 1990
Four stars because by now there are many more extensive Neil Diamond compilations available. This set of 12 classic songs demonstrates Diamond's compositional skills and great voice with catchy tunes, heartfelt delivery and great arrangements. The many cover versions of these tracks are proof of their enduring appeal. A song like I'm A Believer has more depth of feeling in Diamond's own version than the more famous Monkees cover, while on the ballads like Shilo his voice has a certain haunting tone that still gives me gooseflesh after all these years. Sweet Caroline, Holly Holy, Cracklin' Rosie and I Am I Said are my personal favorites on this collection. These are pop songs of quality and distinction.

Hot August Night II [Australian Import]

Search: Soolaimon
by: Neil Diamond

Release Date May 05, 2008
Hot August Night 2, is the follow up album to Hot August Night 1 which was one f the best and highly acclaimed live albums in the 70's.
The sequel recorded in the Greek Theatre in LA, maybe not as good as the original, but still contains some of Neil's early greats like Cracklin Rosie, Sweet Caroline and I am I Said amongst others.

Over all this album is ok but as it gets going Neils voice begins to get tired and very rough indeed spoiling some of his great tracks, however this is a bad thing its just putting more of Neils emotion into the tracks, something wich Neils live perfomances are famed.

If you like Neils Live albums then get this one, it may not be his best but Its very good all the same!

Play Me: The Complete Uni Studio Recordings...Plus!

Search: Soolaimon
by: Neil Diamond

Release Date April 08, 2002
It may be argued that Neil Diamond has not been himself for some years now. If you don't believe me listen to these three discs (comprising all 6 of his earliest MCA studio albums) and you will be convinced of Mr Diamond's sparkling beginings. Skip the derisible "The Pot Smoker's Song" and the hokey "Knackelflerg" on Disc 1, and you are left with 69 tracks of sheer excellence.
Apart from some of the classics, that all Diamond fans know and love, there are some lesser known gems - "Juliet" is a lovely, well paced love song as is "Hurtin' You Don't Come Easy"
Disc 2 contains the wonderful "African Trilogy" a full sweeping mini rock opera that shows just how brave and experimental Diamond once was (and to be fair, still is in his live ... Read More:
