Neil Diamond Celebrates 50 Years Of Music
It is hard to believe that the amazing Neil Diamond has been singing, writing and performing for 50 years! I think it became “cool” to be a Neil fan after the movie Saving Silverman came out in 2001. Since then we’ve all been able to enjoy “Sweet Caroline,” “Cherry Cherry,” “Cracklin’ Rosie,” “Song Sung Blue,” “Heartlight” and hundreds more any time we want.
On March 31, Neil Diamond 50 – 50th Anniversary Collection, will be released. It is a 3 CD set that marks the 50th anniversary of the singer’s first hit “Solitary Man.” One week later, on April 7, Neil will begin his 50th Anniversary Tour in Fresno, CA. Tickets are available at Ticketmaster.com (all dates and cities are below)
