Stages: Performances 1970-2002 [Box] by Neil Diamond (CD, Sep-2003, 5 Discs, Legacy Recordings)

Music has been in my family for years. Listening to my older sibling play the record player as I was growing up introduced me to musicians such as Elvis, The Beatles, Neil Diamond, The Everly Brothers and many, many more.
One of my favorite artists of the early 60's was Neil Diamond. I would run around the house mimicking and singing all the words of I'm a Believer, Cherry Cherry, You Got To Me to name a few. As the years went by, I still managed to memorize all of the words to his songs from Cracklin Rosie, to Holly Holy, September Morn, Solitary Man, America, You Don't Bring Me Flowers (a beautiful duet with Barbra Streisand), Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show, He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother.
All of these songs have been included in this boxed set and many others including Neil singing favorite Christmas songs - Silent Night, White Christmas, Rudolph, The Christmas Song.
Neil has written music for other artists as well. His music has spanned almost four decades and continues to please young and old alike and into a new generation. Now that's what I call "music".
He is also going on tour again at the end of this year or in early 2006.

Great collection. Every great song he ever wrote is in this collection..great price too. Thank you!
