by
Neil Diamond
Although not as comprehensive an anthology of Neil Diamond's eight-album, four-year affiliation with MCA as 1992's 38-track double Glory Road, The Neil Diamond Collection is a definitive single-disc recap of one of his extensive career's most influential periods. It's a beautifully remastered, non-chronologically arranged 67 minutes of studio ...

Hot August Night
(1972)
more music like this
by
Neil Diamond
This is the ultimate Neil Diamond record. Not necessarily the best -- he's at his most appealing crafting in the studio -- but certainly the ultimate, capturing all the kitsch and glitz of Neil Diamond, the showman. And that also means that it's not just loaded with flair, but with filler, songs like "Porcupine Pie," "Soggy Pretzels," and "And the ...

Gold [Geffen]
(2005)

by
Neil Diamond
Neil Diamond 's Gold is the kind of release that makes you wonder exactly who it is aimed at and -- more importantly for the label -- who will buy it. Too long to be the kind of quick overview of his years (1968-1972) with MCA that casual fans would want (and which already exists in 1999's The Neil Diamond Collection), it is also bereft of ...

Love Songs [2002 MCA]
(2002)
more music like this
by
Neil Diamond
Neil Diamond didn't stay long on MCA's Uni label, but it was a time when recording artists were expected to release at least two LPs a year, and he pumped out eight albums between 1969 and 1972, sometimes by covering songs written by others, giving MCA a substantial catalog it has used in years since to create many compilations. In 1981, there was ...

Neil Diamond
In My Lifetime is a triple-disc, 71-track box set spanning Neil Diamond's entire career, from his early Bang hits, through his heyday at MCA, to his latter-day adult contemporary hits for Columbia. Demos, alternate takes, and live cuts are interspersed throughout the box. Not all of Diamond's greatest songs are here -- obscurities like "Two-Bit ...

Suspicious Minds [1999]

more music like this
by
Elvis Presley
Elvis Presley's comeback recordings from the late '60s are generally regarded as some of the finest music he ever made, not only because they proved he could still be exciting, but because they're musically diverse and emotionally rich. That was evident on From Elvis in Memphis, the first record released from his landmark sessions of 1968 and 1969 ...

Live in America
(1995)
more music like this
by
Neil Diamond
Much like its predecessor Hot August Night 2, Live in America captures Neil Diamond at the height of his powers as a showman. By the time Live in America was recorded, it had been several years since he had a hit; in fact, the closest he had come to the top of the charts was when UB40 took a reggae remake of "Red Red Wine" to number one. That ...

Neil Diamond
Neil Diamond was a Uni artist in the late '60s and early '70s, the period that coincided with his greatest commercial success and most consistently popular singles. This three-CD, 74-track set is just what it says it is: every last song from all six of his 1968-1972 Uni studio albums, plus seven cuts from his live Gold and Hot August Night records ...

Elvis Presley
RCA's 2006 comp Elvis Inspirational is part of a trilogy of three theme-based compilations that also includes Elvis Rock and Elvis Country, and while this collection suggests that it will deliver 20 tracks of Elvis singing gospel tunes, that's not quite the case. Instead of concentrating on his classic early-'60s record His Hand in Mine, this is ...

by
Neil Diamond
Although he managed to place three singles in the charts after joining Uni Records in 1968, Neil Diamond did not achieve a real hit record on the label until March 1969, when his fourth Uni single, "Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show," got into the Top 40. Naturally, Diamond quickly assembled an album to support the single, and it was ...

EMI's 20 Golden Greats collects many of Neil Diamond's biggest hits from the late '60s and early '70s, but the vinyl-only compilation has since been supplanted by several CD-era collections that offer better track selections and fidelity. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

Golden Classics: Arizona/Silverbird
(1996)
more music like this
by
Mark Lindsay
A 21-song collection drawn from the Arizona and Silverbird albums. The material is quite pop-oriented, and very pretty pop music -- there's not much rock here apart from "Arizona" and "Silverbird," and there are lots of string and brass sections at work, but Lindsay's voice is an extremely expressive instrument, and he gives some powerful ...

Glory Road: 1968 to 1972

by
Neil Diamond
The double-CD Glory Road: 1968 to 1972 set raises all kinds of mixed emotions. On the one hand, it's a great idea to distill down the highlights of Neil Diamond's career on Uni Records; on the other, that was the period that moved him in the direction away from being a rock musician and songwriter, and toward being the kind of performer that ...

A somewhat entertaining collection of Neil Diamond's lesser-known melodies brought forth here under the title And the Singer Sings His Song. Certainly a few positives come to light from this record. The songs are charming, romantic, and easy to dance to. Perfect for a getaway excursion from reality and off to your favorite beached island. With a ...

Forever Neil Diamond
(2006)
more music like this
by
Neil Diamond
Neil Diamond may not be the most varied songwriter to ever put pen to paper but what he did, he did masterfully. In his early days he most memorably wrote sunny, gloriously simple tunes like "Cherry, Cherry" and "Thank the Lord for the Nightime" that instantly get the feet tapping and fingers snapping. In the late '60s and early '70s he branched ...

Back in Memphis
(1970)
more music like this
by
Elvis Presley
The product of the same early 1969 Memphis sessions under producer Chips Moman that yielded the classic From Elvis in Memphis LP in 1969, Back in Memphis is usually thought of as a distinctly lesser album, but that's far too simplistic and harsh a judgement. For starters, any album that contains Elvis' rendition of Percy Mayfield's "Stranger in My ...

Martin Zellar & The Hardways
With a strangulated voice somewhere between '60s Bob Dylan and '70s Neil Diamond (whose "The Grass Don't Pay No Mind" he faithfully covers here), Martin Zellar's fourth solo studio effort isn't a departure from the rest of his catalog, but it's still one of his sturdiest outings. The muscular, yet unobtrusive three-piece Hardways provide twangy ...

Neil Diamond
Neil Diamond's second album for Uni offered the typical strengths and weaknesses of his LPs for the label. The strengths? A good single (the title track) and a rather remarkable stylistic diversity. The weaknesses? The failure of any of the other tracks to stand out nearly as much as the single, and the feeling that sometimes Diamond was doing ...

The Best Of from Universal UK was originally released in 1996 on MCA as The Best of Neil Diamond, and as far as "greatest-hits" collections go, it's in the upper echelon. There are no insufferable stretches of mid-'80s crap like "Heartlight" or "Headed for the Future"; rather, the compilers chose to focus on the pop/rock legend's prolific late- ...
