"Ooh, dum dum dada, ooh, dum dum dada". This is music that takes you through the Alltasg and long reverberates when the car and the CD are long silent.
Now there are deserved 5 stars.
Neil Diamond really touches in "Melody Road" everything that he has written and performed in the course of his long musician / songwriter time. There is no third Rubin album, but has its inspiration from very early discs, thus offering new fans a kind of summary of his work. Impressing the clarity and power of his voice, which still recognize any wear is seen lässt.Im complete works (as far as I know it), Melody Road is better than some of the albums of the eighties or the nineties. It's almost reached "12songs" or "Home Before Dark" ran. Have particularly enjoyed "Melody Road" and outstanding I find even "First Time". The bonus tracks are nice, but "Something" by George Harrison is dearer to me than the version of Neil Diamond. Disappointed Neil Diamond can only be if they either have another CD in the style of Jack Ruby's expected or if they thought Neil Diamond reinvents itself entirely new. But it is neither the one nor the other. Solid music pieces with catchy songs and shallow. Poorer years had almost all artists. Whether an Elton John, a Chris de Burgh or the Stones. Even the Beatles have had their hangover, they would have stayed longer there. Neil Diamond is out of his trailer Duch. I hear the CD like, like to accompany him on his tour memory.
