I highly recommend this album.

I’m so happy to be wrong about this. What a pleasant surprise. Some of these recordings are the best ever versions of these songs. Neil probably unbeknownst to him, delivered a classic. You all know me, I would be the first to tell you if it sucked!
Keyboard player on the album?

Call me sappy. I LOVE this album!
by Melody Road November 21, 2020
That’s saying a lot coming from a guy who 1-Hates cover albums. 2- Hates “Heartlight” and “Love on the Rocks.” I LOVE all of these songs as they are done on this record. This work will appeal more to those who have spent decades on the Neil train. The arrangements are fabulous. When you... Read more

We just received an email from umusic-online.com. Something is confusing here. There is a picture of Neil and states underneath it, "Listen to Classic Diamonds, The Originals Vol. 1." Further it states about a EP Volumes 1-3. Is this going t... Read more
