 Coming home again with Neil May 19, 2008
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Thank you Mr Diamond. Because after 40+ years of loving your music and growing up into my own life, your newest cd feels like a valentine from a long-ago best friend. I am terribly grateful you gave birth to these lovely songs and then gave them to all of us. May we all be reminded that life gives us opportunities for "one more bite of the apple" if we only remember to look up from our busy lives to see that they are there. Especially, as in those moments I stop everything I'm doing just to listen to one of your songs.
Perhaps a review should cover content and contain terribly insightful commentary....
But I guess I'd just rather say THANK YOU, and then go back to listening.

Once again, Neil delivers! This album was worth the wait. Neil Diamond continues to draw from his soul and bring extradordinary music to us.... a must for any Diamond fan, but others should give it a listen too---you'll be hooked!

This is vintage Neil Diamond. Every song is worth listening to. The more you listen, the more it grows on you. Quality of CD is excellent. Neil is aging, but you would not know it by the production of this CD. The "album" notes are instructive and informative. If you like Neil Diamond, you will not be disappointed with this CD.
DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH SHINES BRIGHTLY ... May 9, 2008
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
Neil Diamond's new CD, Home before Dark, is brilliant, sparkling, multi-faceted, clear, pure and flawless. Everything you'd excpect from a Diamond and more! And that's just for the first song, "If I Don't See You Again."
As a loyal fan of Diamond's music dating back to the 60s, Home Before Dark is the quintessential conglomerate of this man's talent, creative artistry and confessional soul-bearing. Nothing about Neil is phony ... there are no cubic zirconias anywhere near this Diamond. He is raw, he is honest, he is deep, he is real ... and he is human. His lyrics tell the story of his life and his music caresses and enfolds those words beautifully and masterfully on Home Before Dark. And it leaves you wanting more ... to know him more, to know his music more and to learn more ... about life and human failings and love that is gained and lost and regained again.
If you love a story, and if you love music, then treat yourself to a musical story of life with its ups, downs and all the in-betweens that go along with it. Neil Diamond is a masterful storyteller and interpreter of lyric - second only to the immortal Frank Sinatra in my opinion - but Neil is telling it "his way" today with the same poignancy and depth as Ol' Blue Eyes himself, and with more than just a touch of some "pretty amazing grace."
Run, don't walk to your nearest musical outlet and get this incredible piece of Neil's soul, and then be sure to get home before dark to listen well into the wee small hours of the morning. By daylight, you will be lifted, inspired, entertained and grateful.
I Love Home Before Dark! May 9, 2008

I love Neil's new CD, Home Before Dark. I really like the guitars and piano. I like the simplicity of the music but it is so intense. I love the duet with Natalie Manes. I loved it the first time I heard it. Pretty Amazing Grace is just wonderful. I love Whose Hands Are These. I really love all the songs on the CD. It is not Neil as a young performer but Neil as a mature wonderful man.
