Neil Diamond – Classics Early Years CD Original Hit Recordings Compilation
Description:
Originally recorded for legendary producer Bert Berns’ Bang label, this collection documents the mid-’60s period when Neil Diamond was an emerging New York songwriter and apprentice pop star. Many of these hits have generated subsequent cover smashes–“I’m a Believer” (Monkees), “Kentucky Woman” (Deep Purple), “Red Red Wine” (UB40), “Girl, You’ll Be a Woman Soon” (Urge Overkill)–but the originals remain the greatest. Produced by Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich, sublime singles like “Solitary Man,” “Cherry Cherry,” and “Thank the Lord for the Night Time” kept Brill Building rocks on the charts during the British Invasion. Diamond would go on to become a ’70s megastar, but many believe he has never equaled these recordings. –Ben Edmonds
