Reviews4 stars out of 5 -- "These 23 tracks include hits, surprisingly tough rockers, songs made famous by others -- all delivered in that lung-busting Neil Diamond baritone.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "How a failing songwriter turned his life into the stuff of hits in 23 songs.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "His well-crafted tales, equal parts introspection and awe, struck a nerve....These nicely re-mastered original mono recordings are where it all started."
Same content as "The Feel of Neil Diamond" and "Just for You" but in a different order plus a couple of extra tracks. Good liner notes. This is probably as good as it gets although a Japanese import of the original album's is available on
CD. Mixed feelings about "original mono", I suspect the 60s releases would have been in stereo had the record company wanted to afford it.
Really love Neil's early work and this is no exception , a great selection of commercial 'pop' songs that showcase his talent and voice . Not all the songs on here are his own work but he does them justice .
