Hot August Night album Product Description

Hot August Night album by Neil Diamond was released Dec 31, 1985 on the Geffen label. Recorded live at the Greek Theatre, Los Angeles, California on August 24, 1972. Hot August Night music CDs Originally released on MCA Records (6896). Includes liner notes by Karen Shearer. In addition to his excellent skills as a songwriter, Neil Diamond is also known for his bold, often theatrical performance style. One glance at the cover of HOT AUGUST NIGHT--Diamond clothed in denim and Native American jewelry, with his hands hovering over his body, and an expression suggesting a trance of intensity--and the listener knows he or she is in for some serious performing. The pop icon delivers as expected; HOT AUGUST NIGHT, recorded in 1972 at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles, documents the epic showmanship of a Neil Diamond concert. Listeners will certainly get their money's worth. Diamond's best-loved songs stuff the two-disc, 25-track set list--the ubiquitous "Sweet Caroline," the infectious "Song Sung Blue," et al, plus versions of "Red Red Wine" and "Girl, You'll Be A Woman Soon," which he wrote, but were also hits for others. ...See Full Description

Great old music
It's back to those good old days of high school. As a kid I had every word of every song memorized. Great rock and roll without having to cover the kids ears because of the lyrics. The tunes stick in your head to be sung over and over.

universally loved
At I recent dinner party attended by a mixture of age groups we started talking about iconic albums. I decided to take a poll and sure enough every person at the party born before 1965 owned an original copy of Hot August Night and 14/17 also owned a CD.

MUST HAVE!
One of the all time clasics of the 70's. This is probably the best recording ever put together by Neil Diamond.

Neil!
If you' re a fan of Neil, this is the album to have. A live album gives music a certain something special. It's no different here. Neil classics performed outside on a hot August night, you can feel the excitement as Neil belts out each song with raw emotion. Contains the best version of Holly Holy I've ever heard.
