Having never heard Neil Diamond, I bought this on a whim. I am aware of how big he is, and he deserves it. The sound quality alone made me double back because it caught me off guard with how CRISP it comes out, even my car speakers with a lot of back ground noise, you can make out every individual instruments with clarity. As far as the songs go, I certainly enjoyed the blue jeans song, as well the others. Im 24 y/o, popped out Kung fu Kenny's DAMN, put this in and it was awesome.
I have been looking for this one and off for a while I have it on 8 track and every time I looked for it; it would only show me an 8 track tape. Thrilled to have found this and put it in my car CD Player and enjoying it!!!!
I ordered the CD "You Don't Bring Me Flowers Anymore" and I rated it best, partly because of a recent comment from my daughter (She married in 1965 when she was 16 and he about 23.). She said recently, "He never brings me floweers any more." The CD was delivered to their home. After playing it, my daughter called me and said, "We listened to it together, and he didn't take the hint." Ah, well, so life goes on LOL Mollie Howard El Paso TX
Buy this one for the duet with Barbra alone. Probably one of the Top 10 ND tracks he re-records this classic with Barbra Streisand and it is fantastic. I wonder why they never did any more duets since they both recorded for Columbia. Neil had done this song solo on a previous album but this classic duet his the one that soared to the top in the Easy Listening chart.
