RIP Robbie Robertson
by IronyAbounds August 10, 2023
Robertson and Diamond seemed like a strange pairing, but their partnership on Beautiful Noise resulted in an excellent album. Love at the Greek suffered from comparison with Hot August Night and subsequently from a lack of adding additional songs like has been done with HAN. In any event, he is another rock a... Read more
I have not seen Beautiful Noise yet but am not thrilled with the song selection.
by Melody Road July 31, 2023
I like the soundtrack for what it is. That said, could they have played it any safer with the song selection? I realize the biggest hits like Sweet Caroline had to be included but how can you do "Beautiful Noise" without "If You Know What I Mean" and "Home Is a Wounded Heart?" I saw a recent understudy vid... Read more
Saw Beautiful Nose
by IronyAbounds May 26, 2023
I saw A Beautiful Noise tonight. In all honesty I was a bit disappointed. The singing was fine, and the cast was ok, but overall it just left me a bit cold. One problem was that they took liberties with the facts. Most people won't notice but having read as much about Neil as I have, it was somewhat disco... Read more

Sheet Music
by neilfans2 March 18, 2023
My brother and I had a fake songbook put out by Hanson Publishing Company back in 1979-80. In the book, it had three of Neil's songs, "Be Good to My Baby," and "He'll Make Her Mine," and "Flame." Does anybody have the sheet music of the songs or just the lyrics of first two? Jeff

Good Evening Everyone, Has anyone heard anything yet as to if Universal Music Group has plans this year to release that completed album of Neil's that they mentioned in the story last February?

DOCUMENTARY
by neilfans2 February 1, 2023
My brother and I saw a web article on the Bklyner.com website, titled, "Neil Diamond Will Return Home to Brighton Beach to Film Documentary This Weekend." The article is by Ned Berke. The funny thing about this is that the article is from September 25, 2014. The title of the documentary in the article show... Read more
Trip to see “A Beautiful Noise”
by Janet Middleton January 30, 2023
Hi everyone. This is Janet from Illinois. I used to be on this site a lot back in the days of Rev. Bob. I so appreciated everything on this site and I still love it. I'm not really sure why I stopped checking in much. It may have been the rise of Facebook and some Neil Diamond Facebook groups that I joined. J... Read more
Neil Songs on Fleishman is in Trouble
by IronyAbounds January 10, 2023
Watching Fleishman is in Trouble, a Hulu series, I was surprised to hear Cherry Cherry in Episode 1 and Play Me in Episode 3. One of the times Cherry Cherry is used in Episode 1 is during some scenes in which Jesse Eisenberg (Fleishman) is engaging in some carnal activity, so considered yourself warned if t... Read more
