A mid-life change for Neil? Nicely done.,
By
This review is from: Tennessee Moon (Audio CD)
Since this album was released, I've heard - unverified rumor, mind you - that Neil has left his wife of many years. Is Diamond in the midst of a mid-life change? Certainly, the themes of such songs as "Win the World" and "Reminisce for A While" support the notion of a past love gone sour, and those of "Marry Me", "Deep Inside of You" and "Like You Do" suggest a new love found. After all, a singer of Neil's talent wouldn't find inspiration for such just sitting around the house changing guitar strings.In any case, Mr. Diamond has been my favorite vocalist, male or female, ever since "Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show" back when we were both much younger. Though his voice has never been "perfect" - and it's beginning to crack around the edges with advancing age - his music and lyrics have consistently matched my biorhythms more than any other artist. It doesn't hurt that the band backing him up has always been superb. "Tennessee Moon" veers into the genre of Nashville-style country. The change from past repertoire is welcome and nicely done. I've had the privilege of attending a Diamond concert twice in my life, and those relatively recently. Those of us in the audience in our 40's, 50's and 60's, all swaying (creakily) to that "good gospel beat", thank you so very much for the listening pleasure you've given us down through the decades.

Not out of the park but a stand up double,
By A Customer
This review is from: Tennessee Moon (Audio CD)
The temptation to be an oldies act must be great, but this proves he has greater days ahead. Not a complete home run, but a stand up double with Diamond clearly swinging for the fences. As with much of his work, an external context provides a needed anchor. Never has Diamond revealed more about his personal life, to great effect.

Buy it!,
By Kurt A. Johnson (North-Central Illinois, USA) - See all my reviews (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (VINE VOICE) (TOP 100 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Tennessee Moon (Audio CD)
Neil Diamond, a great singer/songwriter from Brooklyn, New York, has had a career that ranged from the 1960s right through to today. If you listen to the radio, you've heard his music - everything from The Monkees' I'm a Believer, through his own Heartlight and Love On The Rocks. This great album came out in 1996, and has 18 great Neil Diamond songs.
This album is what I would call classic Neil Diamond - there's no experimentation here, just that great Neil Diamond sound that I grew to love so many years ago. Overall, I find this a wonderful album to listen to, with Tennessee Moon and Marry Me being my favorites. I love this album and highly recommend it to everyone. Buy it!
