Amazon.com essential recording Beautiful Noise, Diamond's most overtly rock album, perhaps owes more to Elton's flash than Dylan's rough edges. Still, its recollections of New York City in the Brill Building days couple with some forceful studio pop (produced by Robbie Robertson, who would later invite Diamond to appear at The Last Waltz concert) for a generally successful concept album. One of Diamond's best mid-'70s singles, "Do You Know What I Mean," is included. --Rickey Wright
Album Description Vinyl Classics reissue of this 1976 album produced by The Band's Robbie Robertson comes as a vinyl look-a-like CD that's packaged in a die-cut see-through slipcase. 11 tracks. Sony.
Customer Reviews:
Neil DiamondDecember 27, 2008 Jean M. Pantaleo(California) I have always loved Neil Diamond's music and songs. I think his eary works are the best! I have worn out two "Hot August Night" CD's already and love almost everything he has made. jmp
Without a doubt Diamond's Best Album!!September 9, 2008 Bradley Jackson(Australia) Produced by the legendary Robbie Robertson from The Band should be enough to know this is going to be a great album. I have to admit to not knowing too many of Neil Diamond's albums as such, but like most people I know all of his hits. They could have almost released every song off this album as a single and they would have been hits. Standout tracks to me are of cause Beautiful Noise, Stargazer, If You Know What I Mean, Streetlife, Jungletime and the track he actually performed with The Band on the last waltz, Dry Your Eyes, which amazes me never got on any of his greatest hits albums.
Neil Diamond, Beautiful NoiseDecember 28, 2007 L. M. Palmer(Reno, NV) It was ok, not the greatest of what Neil Diamond has done. It didn't have the smoothness. It was too edgy for me.
Beautiful NoiseFebruary 28, 2007 S. Person(Euless, TX USA) This is an album I have to listen to over and over. It is Neil's best!

No matter what he sings, Neil Diamond never fails to please. I play this CD and before long, my body is swaying and toes are tapping to the beat. Some lyrics upbeat, others touching the heart. His music is timeless, just as appropriate today as it was thirty years ago.
