Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I own just about every Neil Diamond album prior to 1995 (mostly LP's). I have been a serious fan since high school (late 60's). If you are thinking that this would be a good "Greatest Hits" album to have, think again. About half of these tracks are recorded from live concert performances, and many of those are of low musical quality. "Remastering" does no good when you are starting with junk to begin with. If you like "live" recordings (and we are NOT talking about "Hot August Night" quality here), then you may like this CD. If what you want is what your heard on the radio way back when, then half of this collection is going to seriously disappoint you.
