Free Music Review: A Solitary Man: The Early Songs of Neil Diamond
Hit: 4 Stars

This album is a treasure for real Neil-fans. There are songs in this collection never heard by some of us before and all reflect the era they were written and recorded in. Some of the songs seem dated, but do reflect the breadth of Neil Diamond's long and creative past. Most of these are young man's laments or celebrations of first love. All demonstrate the emerging talent and style that would become a world-wide sensation just a few years later. "Sunday and Me" typifies this style and is one of several songs that other artists found success with. As he has done at several of his concerts, Neil might think of adding a few more of these selections to his concert list to introduce them as one of his real old, oldies! "Look Out, Here Comes Tomorrow" is one he played a few years ago and you were reminded of the Monkees' rendition. This album is probably only going to attract serious fans, but there is some solid 60's rock and roll here that a wider audience might enjoy!

A Solitary Man: The Early Songs Of Neil Diamond Poster

Thanks to a pair of albums produced by Rick Rubin (2005 s '12 Songs' and the 2008 chart-topper 'Home Before Dark') the credibility of Neil Diamond stands at its highest ever - a great achievement, especially when one considers that his first recordings were made some 48 years ago. Neil Diamond is the latest great American songsmith of the 1960s to be featured in Ace s fast-expanding series of writer-based compilations, where he joins Goffin & King, Leiber & Stoller, Jackie DeShannon, Pomus & Shuman, Chip Taylor and other legendary songwriters. Prior to Diamond s breakthrough as a recording artist he spent several years paying his dues by writing songs for other performers, honing his talent in the process. The Monkees, Cliff Richard, Sadina, Jan Tanzy, the Solitaires, Jay & the Americans, Jimmy Clanton, Billy Fury, Marcie Blane, Ronnie Dove and the Rocky Fellers, were all the recipients of early Diamond numbers he himself never recorded. The rest of the songs date from the latter half of the 60s, most of which are from his spectacular two-year spell at Bang Records. Few artists ever recorded better versions of Neil Diamond s compositions than Arthur Alexander, Lulu, BJ Thomas, the Wanderer s Rest or Bobby Womack.
