This artist fell through the cracks! Neil Leslie Diamond has been with us for 6 decades!!! This incredible singer songwriter has amassed a staggering 33 studio albums and 8 live releases...I know our esteemed MD member ...Jerome will appreciate this video from Hot August Night!

Hits include Solitary Man, Sweet Caroline, Cherry Cherry, Girl You'll Be A Woman Soon, Kentucky Woman, Thank The Lord For the Night Time, Red Red Wine, Shilo, Brother Loves Travellin' Salvation Show, Holly Holy, Soolaimon, Cracklin Rosie, I Am I Said.....on and on and on!
His 1972 live album Hot August Night is electrifying! The album was Number One in Australia for 29 weeks!
The one thing I love about this artist is that his songs are real...no fancy production and very dominant and strong as far as melody is concerned!
The ultimate connection is between a performer and its' audience!
