Summary: Neil Diamond At His Dynamic Best In 1976 Live In Concert
Comment: This VHS is a wonderful treat. This is a truly great live concert video. You will never see Neil Diamond sing like this again as he did in 1976 at his prime. In this landmark performance the songs are true to their original melodies and so exciting. The program runs for a wonderful 52 minutes. The music is timeless. The songs include:
Cherry Cherry
Sweet Caroline - such a sweet melody gives me chills
Play Me - another great melody
Beautiful Noise - a nice beat
Street Life
Lady Oh
If You Know What I Mean - full of emotion
Song Sung Blue - fun with the audience & Helen Reddy(terrific)
Cracklin' Rosie - the audience can't sit down, so much beat
Holly Holy
I Am...I Said
Brother Love's Traveling
Salvation Show
I've Been This Way Before
Live Concert (Memorial 335/5)

Summary: Very good but......................
Comment: I grew up listening to Neil Diamond. I used to have the Double LP of this concert. To be honest, I was a little disapointed with this viedo. It isn't because of the performence, Neil diamond himself is always great. It's cool seeing him in a concert that was filmed nack when I was 12 years old.I would have given this a 4 star rating if at least it included the fifteen minute medley "Johnathan livingston seagull" that is on the CD.
I expect more than this. It should have included the whole concert instead of the edited for TV version. The fault lies with those who edited the viedo-not with Neil diamond. He himself gets 5 stars-but the video gets 3 stars.

Comment: This performance by Neil Diamond is a perfect example of his dynamic, warm, personable on-stage presence. It reflects his ability to relate to and captivate his audience with talent and charisma. Every true Diamond fan should have this video, (along with the CD) in their collection.

Summary: Flashback! Fabulous concert! Best thing next to being there
Comment: If ever there was a "truly great" live concert video, it is this one. You will NEVER see Neil perform like this again. I love this concert filmed in Los Angeles at the Greek Theatre, a 1976 landmark performance. The songs are so true to the original melody and the romantic, sensuous ballads, "Play Me" and "I Am I Said" are mesmerizing. Neil has fun with the audience for "Song Sung Blue", he calls to the stage, none other that "Fonzie" from Happy Days and singer Helen Reddy. Neil points out to other celebs in the audience.
How wonderful the music is from "Beautiful Noise" and "Lady Oh" and "Street Life" inspired from his Tin Pan Alley days. This is superb. Wow, the "Holly Holy" and "Brother Loves Traveling Salvation Show" are rousing and riveting! Neil is beautiful! His voice is captivating, deep and unique.
Enjoy the hits "Cherry Cherry", "Sweet Caroline", "I've Been This Way Before" and "If You Know What I Mean". ....MzRizz
