Kevin Davis wrote:I like some Neil Diamond. His early Bang recordings are indispensable '60's pop, and there is a lot of songwriting expertise in his music even as it disappears further down the halls of irredeemable schlock. He knows his medium, and his music is stronger for it; other schlocksters like Billy Joel are constantly battling these literary temptations that just exceed their grasp, and falling flat as a result. A lot of his stuff doesn't appeal to me, but a well-chosen best-of mix would be excellent.
:thumbsup: And KD comes through again.

My mom is 5/8 on these, and I'm pretty sure she and my dad haven't had sex for at least five years. Add to that the two cocktails I've just consumed, and my mind is spinning...
