What Are You Listening To?

[CRAZY-HORSE]

NEIL DAIMOND "icon" 2010 cd.

firstly, is Neil really a 'rock/classic rock' vocalist???not so sure, but he doesnt seem to fit anywhere else neither, except in maybe "easy listening" for which there is no genre,
these tracks are from the days when he had a decent voice and sung decent songs...none of the "heartlight" crap from the post 1970s
mini twelve track compilation of ND courtesy of "gotta luv music" whilst driving in her car yesterday afternoon/evening after a trip to the shops with her daughter.
we both love Neil, shame this cd was too short in length, but a good listen nevertheless.
nothing real bad on this one, but a couple of "iffy" tracks IMO,always preferred Elvis' version of "sweet caroline" over Neil's for some reason.
not too keen(meaning like, not love) on tracks 5 and 9 neither, but the rest are typical classic Diamond efforts. my best track here is "song sung blue", Dani is not to keen on "he aint heavy, he's my brother" with her pick of the tracks being "girl, you'll be a woman soon".
i havent got round to explaining the MH ratings system to her yet but she loves this album, guessing i do also with a rating of 2.5.
