Neil Diamond.........


Okay, so I've never been much of a Neil Diamond fan. Although I think he was great during The Band's "The Last Waltz" concert, I never bought any of his records. Then a few years ago, at my wife's urging, I reluctantly went to see him in concert. Wow !!!....he was sensational, and I've since learned to really respect him as a singer.

Well, I recently purchased "Home Before Dark," his latest CD. It may very well be the best male vocal recording I have ever heard. It is simply fantastic, and through my Rotel/Rogue/Vandersteen system, it sounds as if he is absolutely "in the room." The songs are terrific, and the recording seems perfect. How do you guys and gals feel about this album ?

"Home Before Dark" is a real great album. Sound is outstanding on Vinyl, when they use a Digital Master, I don't hear it.
But "12 Songs" (the Double CD, where his choices are on a separate Disc) is unique. Remembers me a little bit to Cash' 1. Album with Rick Rubin, a "Look into the former Life", but really, really good.
