5 out of 5 stars Diamond at his rockin' best.   November 16, 2008
Beagley (Adelaide South Australia)
It's hard to believe a recording this old could have such great sound. With excellent stereo separation, the sound leaps out of the stereo. I love HAN like most fans, but this is raw and rockin'. He puts so much energy in the music, giving the small crowd a great show. The basic instruments are great, particularly the drums and electric guitar. It's not the massive production of later years, but is still a pleasure to listen to. The best version of "Solitary Man" and worth the price just for the one song. br /If only the CD was longer


5 out of 5 stars Neil's best - in my humble opinion   January 28, 2008
D. W. Moore (Portland, OR USA)
This has some great versions of his songs recorded in a live nightclub setting. I really like the band and background singers.


4 out of 5 stars Proof that Neil can ROCK   December 24, 2005
Brett Simpson (Auckland, New Zealand)
This is a great live album, easily my favourite of the myriad of live Diamond releases there are out there. Neil really lets loose, and is clearly enjoying himself just as much as his small, but appreciative audience. br / br /There are a couple of weaker moments: 'I could never hit that note' he says, self-deprecatingly after a very flat 'strong' in the opening line of 'Sweet Caroline' and he does struggle throughout that song as well as 'And the Singer Sings His Song', but this scores points with me just the same for documenting a raw and honest live experience. br / br /As for the uptempo tunes - which predominate - he is in fine form from the whoops and screams on "Lordy" to the impassioned sermon on 'Brother Love'. At the end of that tune, as the crowd scream for more, you can't help but join in with them.

Ok, so I remember this record from my childhood, Mom had the vinyl. With Neil about to release a new CD with Rick Rubin, I deceided to seek this out of print CD out.....it was worth it! This is Neil Diamond LIVE with a small band, no strings, no horns and very little (or less cheesy-ness than normal)....its Great! On Lordy and Brother Love's traveling Salvation Show Diamond Literally shreds his voice! its raw and real! Somebody should remaster and reissue this (with bonus material if possible)....this record was released by Neils old label after the success of Hot August Night, and to be honest I like this live record better! Its a raw, young Diamond, not over blown cheese....seek it out!

I see people diss this album because the sound isn't big enough. If you're looking for the airbrushed sound of lush orchestration, multiple percussionists, backup singers, and the huge productions which mark the decline of many great artists, then this album is not for you. Rather, this particular collection recorded live at a club in LA is Neil Diamond stripped down to his rockin' roots; just guitar, bass, drums, and Neil. He rocks your socks off from the beginning of Lordy all the way through the closing number, the best version of Brother Love's Travelling Salvation Show that I've ever heard. I've loved this album since my college roomate introduced me to it in 1995 and still jam my old vinyl version. I implore you to also discover this ablum and find Neil Diamond at the true height of his stage prowess. The between song banter is fantastic as well (eat your heart out, Wil Ferrel.)
