This is a tribute to a music legend named Neil Leslie Diamond. He is one of the best singer/songwriters of this or any other generation. On Saturday night, I went to a concert at Taylorsville Park of a Neil impersonator. He looked/sounded exactly like our legend friend. What a good time! Neil has sold over 120 million records worldwide throughout his illustrious music career. Many hits such as: Sweet Caroline, America, Cracklin' Rosie, Holly Holy, Hello, Solitary Man, and the list goes on.
He has appeared in films such as: The Jazz Singer, and Saving Silverman. Hopefully soon he will be casted in some other great films. Every 4th of July I create a special music mix. Last year's consisted of about 10-12 songs, this years mix has made its way up to 32 songs. Neil has a few appearances on this great list of All-American ballads.
Let us all remember everything that Mr. Diamond has done throughout his unforgettable tenure as a music prodigy.
Here's to you Neil!
