 Classic Neil Diamond, great songwriting, great album May 22, 2008

I was sitting in a Starbucks working with my laptop when I noticed a song from this album playing from the store sound system. It stopped me, and I nonchalantly thought, wow, this sounds like the Neil Diamond of old, good stuff. I went back to work, but then noticed the store was playing the whole album, and that song after song was, like, really good. I finally just stopped to listen, and was amazed at how strong the album really was. And then I thought, just a minute, I thought this guy was over 60. So I had to buy the CD, and it is classic Neil Diamond, maybe in some ways even better and stronger. I hope a lot of people notice this as well, it needs to be heard.

I've been waiting for this CD to come out for a while. Having been a long time fan of Neil Diamond I was glad to see that he's hanging in there musically. What a master.
Pretty Amazing Grace has to be the prime track on Home Before Dark. However, If I Don't See You Again, Another Day, and the title song Home Before Dark are all strong. Really, truth be told, there isn't a week performance of the CD. It usually takes me a while to fully appreciate new music. I tend to start out pretty luke warm on new performances and then become a stronger advocate as time goes on. With Home Before Dark, I just seemed to enjoy all of the music from the start.
Home Before Dark is in the Neil Diamond tradition. There's nothing not to like here.
Peace to all

Home Before Dark is the very best of all the CD's of Neil Diamond that I own.
Each morning I play this CD and have 'breakfast with Neil Diamond' after I wake
up. It's a great way to start the day!

This album falls way short of my expectations hoping for a wise, mellowed, satisfied Neil singing about the blessings of life and love shared with his family of fans.
Home Before Dark??? A title of "Life on the Rocks" would be better suited.
This album is like reading a musical suicide note.
"Don't say I didn't warn you, my friends" is the lyric in Don't Go There - how appropriate...and unfortunate.

If you're a true Neil Diamond fan, you will love this album. Yes his age is showing but in a good way. No more shouting or stretching his vocal cords. Just the beautiful tone of his voice shining through along with gorgeous instrumentals and the lyrics? Listen to them - inspiring!!
Neil, don't stop writing and keep going in this direction, beautiful, spiritual, sensual music that puts the listener into another world....a good world. I think this is your best work ever since you reached down into your soul and it shows!!!!!
