Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com essential recording
Beautiful Noise, Diamond's most overtly rock album, perhaps owes more to Elton's flash than Dylan's rough edges. Still, its recollections of New York City in the Brill Building days couple with some forceful studio pop (produced by Robbie Robertson, who would later invite Diamond to appear at The Last Waltz concert) for a generally successful concept album. One of Diamond's best mid-'70s singles, "Do You Know What I Mean," is included. --Rickey Wright

What A Beatiful Noise!,
By
This review is from: Beautiful Noise (Audio CD)
On this CD, Neil Diamond hooks up with The Band's Robbie Robertson, who produced this melodic and sentimental array of compositions. Here, the most ardent ND fan will find heartwarming ballads (If You Know What I Mean, Home Is A Wounded Heart, Lady-Oh), good-time standards (Stargazer, the title track, Jungletime) and the feel-good "Don't Think...Feel". Robertson also contributes musically here, playing guitar on songs like the equally touching "Dry Your Eyes". Robertson's "The Band" mates (Garth Hudson, Rick Danko, Richard Manuel) also perform on this CD as well, which gives the songs here diverse arrangements of musical styles. All fans of either ND or The Band should add this CD to their collections. "Check it out!"

Classic Neil,
By Neptune (Dallas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Beautiful Noise (Audio CD)
I have loved his music ever since I could remember, but this is the album that sealed it for me when I was eleven. This album is a wonderful blend of pop, rock, and ballads. "If You Know What I mean" and "Signs" are provoking ballads, and "Home Is A Wounded Heart" still stands as one of Neil's most beautiful songs. Uptempo songs include the rough-edged "Jungletime", the moody "Street Life", and the ever-charming "Don't Think, Feel." However, the best track is the title song-an incredible fusion of synthesized and acoustic instruments, and a progressive feel guaranteed to keep lifting you higher as the song moves on. There really is not a weak song on this album, and I would tell you if there was because nobody knows Neil's music like I do.

Dry your eyes,
By Lee Ann,music lover "music lover" (Middletown, OH USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Beautiful Noise (Audio CD)
As most of you who have read my reviews know I am a bigNeil Diamond fan.(in fact its the only thing my EX sister in law and I ever agreed on). "Beautiful noise" is one of the best! My favorite cut is "Dry your eyes"! According to a recent interview with the man, the title came from one of his daughters. Well worth a listen!
