Biography

Famous American singer Neil Diamond was born in 1941 in New-York. Neil has been acquainted with music since his very childhood, when he started singing in the school choir, and for his sixteenth Birthday Diamond got the present that predetermined his future – the guitar. During the career Neil released numerous hits and plenty of strong albums, but everything started from the composition Hear Them Bells, which the singer dedicated to his girlfriend.

At the very beginning of the professional career Diamond worked as the composer, creating music for various performers. His song Sunday And Me played by Jay And The Americans managed to get to Top Twenty of Billboard chart in 1965. Neil’s song I’m A Believer (performed by The Monkees) turned out to be even more successful – it peaked at the very top of the chart and spent there almost two months. A bit later the composer wrote Sweet Caroline that was really enjoyed both by Elvis Presley, Bobby Womack and Frank Sinatra, who included it into their repertory and by numerous listeners as well. Neil became the respected singer-songwriter and managed to gain a huge fan base due to the sincerity and openness in his creativity. The artist also took part in the creation of the movie The Jazz Singer in 1980; however it did not prove to be a leader of film distribution, but its soundtrack turned out to be extremely popular.

In 1994 the interpretation of Diamond’s song Girl, You'll Be A Woman Soon was included into the legendary Tarantino’s movie Pulp Fiction; before that the British band UB40 pleased the listeners with the cover-version of Neil’s song Red Red Wine, which peaked at top positions in many charts. Thereby it was a perfect proof of rock lovers’ interest to Diamond’s creativity. His compositions sound really harmonically not only in the original, but also in different stylistic variations. In the new Millennium the musician proceeded to release wonderful albums that got their well-deserved places in the collections of music connoisseurs all over the world. Thus the strong long play titled 12 Songs was issued in 2005 and it was followed by the record Home Before Dark (2008), peaked at the very top of charts in the USA and in Great Britain.

In spite of the long and truly fruitful career the musician still has a lot of ideas to share with his listeners and the best proof of that is Neil’s album of 2010 titled Dreams. The quality of the material is unquestionable, because the singer recorded fourteen compositions of various rock performers in his own unique and recognizable style. Diamond established a reputation of an extremely talented musician who can create easily and without any borders of genres. If you are just going to get acquainted with Neil’s creativity, you may choose any of his works: they are all original and interesting in their own ways.
