This is the ultimate Neil Diamond record. Not necessarily the best -- he's at his most appealing crafting in the studio -- but certainly the ultimate, capturing all the kitsch and glitz of Neil Diamond, the showman. And that also means that it's not just loaded with flair, but with filler, songs like "Porcupine Pie," "Soggy Pretzels," and "And the Grass Won't Pay No Mind" -- attempts to write grand, sweeping epics that collapse under their own weight. Still, that's part of the charm of Diamond and while it can sound unbearable on studio albums, it makes some sense here, surrounded by his pomp and circumstance. That spectacle is the great thing about the record, since it inflates not just his great songs, it gives the weaker moments character. At 20-plus tracks in its original release and various reissues over the years, this does wind up being a little much, but it nevertheless is the one record for casual Neil fans (after the hits collections), since it shows Diamond the icon in full glory. [Hot August Night was reissued on LP in 2017.] Hot August Night. Hot August Night is a 1972 live double album by Neil Diamond. (“Hot August night” is also the opening lyric in Diamond’s 1969 single, “Brother Love’s Travelling Salvation Show”.) It is a recording of a Diamond concert on Thursday August 24, 1972, one of ten sold out concerts that Diamond performed that month at The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles. AllMusic Critic Stephen Thomas Erlewin calls Hot August Night “the ultimate Neil Diamond record … (which) shows Diamond the icon in full glory.” The album has become a great success for Diamond, and in Australia, it spent 29 weeks at number 1 on the album charts during 1973 & 1974. This figure was surpassed in the 1980s by Dire Straits with their album Brothers in Arms spending 34 weeks at number one on the album charts. This album, and its predecessor album Moods, are generally acknowledged to be the two most important recording projects of Diamond’s career in terms of defining his signature sound, and in the case of Hot August Night his live performance style, for the future. This live album remains one of the great classic live albums of all time. Track listing All songs by Neil Diamond.

On A Hot August Night In 1972, Neil Diamond Was King. In an era of incredible live albums, Neil Diamond’s Hot August Night from 1972 was the "Cherry Cherry" and "Sweet Caroline" singer's bid to be an A-list showman. The double album wasn’t just a hit, it cemented Diamond as a performer with the charisma of Elvis and the dramatic ability to take the audience on a ride for more than an hour and a half. Neil Diamond is in rare form on Hot August Night , recorded on August 24, 1972, during a run of ten sold-out nights at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles. This perfectly constructed live album shows the range and versatility of an artist in their prime. Before "Hot August Night" Neil Diamond was more famous as a songwriter. In spite of his prowess as a performer, evident on Hot August Night , Diamond found his first success in the music industry off the stage, writing pop songs that were hits for other artists. In 1960, he worked at the Sunbeam Music Publishing company but he didn’t find success until 1965 with the release of "Sunday and Me,” recorded by Jay and the Americans. At the same time Diamond was writing songs that would make his career. While writing at the Brill Building he penned "Cherry, Cherry,” "Solitary Man,” and one of the biggest hits of his career, “I’m A Believer.” Diamond intended to release “I’m A Believer” as a solo song but as luck would have it The Monkees released their version before, which went to #1 on the Billboard chart. Diamond would release a version in 1971 that peaked at #51. Diamond gained a reputation as a songwriter throughout the ‘60s, and this is while he was releasing music through Bang Records and the MCA. He put out a slew of hit singles -- including "Cherry, Cherry" (#6, 1966), "Girl, You'll Be A Woman Soon" (#1o, 1967), "Sweet Caroline" (#4, 1969), "Holly Holy" (#6, 1969), and "Cracklin' Rosie" (#1, 1970) -- and turned into a fantastic live performer. In 1971, he played seven sold out dates at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles, he returned a year later and added three more shows. Diamond played songs that meant something to him. With the recording of Hot August Night in 1972 Neil Diamond proved that he was a live act on par with anyone performing at the time. By ’72 Diamond was such a beloved live act that the ten shows sold out almost immediately, inspiring Diamond to bring along a quadrophonic sound system so the audience could hear the show in full surround sound. Along with the sound system Diamond brought along a huge string section as well as his normal set-up of horns, keys, and a standard rock combo. The set is full of complete bangers from the entirety of his career. The track list of the album is genuinely fascinating, with songs that turned into monster hits -- "Sweet Caroline,” and “Cherry, Cherry” -- relegated to the top of the set, while the emphasis is placed on tracks like "Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show,” which Diamond absolutely destroys in the finale. Even though the album isn’t what we think of as a live album in the modern era -- it's not a systematic a run-through of greatest hits -- it’s the flow of the album that’s astounding. Diamond shows that he’s not only a great songwriter, but that he’s a master arranger. When asked why he didn’t include the songs he wrote for The Monkees, he explained: He became a theatrical showman with "Hot August Night" There’s a showmanship on display on Hot August Night that’s unexpected from Diamond, but with this album he sheds the stigma of being a songwriter who also sings and shows that he’s a masterful performer who also writes amazing songs. Hot August Night is Neil Diamond turned up to 11. He shows his old-time show business soul and exposes that it’s not all that different from the rock n roll spectacle of bands like KISS, Cheap Trick, and numerous others who'd also release monster live albums in the '70s. If anyone was still thinking of Neil Diamond as just a songwriter at this point that preconceived notion was changed with the performance on this album. Diamond takes the audience on a roller coaster ride across his career for a full hour and a half, not letting up until the final moments of the show. The last side of this double album is a stretch of songs that brings the entire audience together like a huge backing chorus for the man himself. It was paramount to Diamond that people be able to watch the show for free. The thing about the Greek Theater is that it’s a beautiful outdoor theater that’s surrounded by stunning hills. If you can sneak up into the trees around the theater and watch the show for free then you should do it. The people at the Greek don’t love that people can get a free show so they do whatever they can to stop people from doing this, but Diamond said that he wouldn’t play the shows if the Greek went after what he called “tree people.” He explained: Let's talk about that cover. It’s impossible to talk about “Hot August Night” without discussing that cover. If you’d never heard Neil Diamond up until this point you wouldn’t be totally wrong to think that he’s some oversexed shock rocker and not the glorious pop singer that he really is - just look at that denim shirt, those beads, and that beautiful head of hair.

  • Venturing in the Slipstream
    VENTURING IN THE SLIPSTREAM THE PLACES OF VAN MORRISON’S SONGWRITING Geoff Munns BA, MLitt, MEd (hons), PhD (University of New England) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Western Sydney University, October 2019. Statement of Authentication The work presented in this thesis is, to the best of my knowledge and belief, original except as acknowledged in the text. I hereby declare that I have not submitted this material, either in full or in part, for a degree at this or any other institution. .............................................................. Geoff Munns ii Abstract This thesis explores the use of place in Van Morrison’s songwriting. The central argument is that he employs place in many of his songs at lyrical and musical levels, and that this use of place as a poetic and aural device both defines and distinguishes his work. This argument is widely supported by Van Morrison scholars and critics. The main research question is: What are the ways that Van Morrison employs the concept of place to explore the wider themes of his writing across his career from 1965 onwards? This question was reached from a critical analysis of Van Morrison’s songs and recordings. A position was taken up in the study that the songwriter’s lyrics might be closely read and appreciated as song texts, and this reading could offer important insights into the scope of his life and work as a songwriter. The analysis is best described as an analytical and interpretive approach, involving a simultaneous reading and listening to each song and examining them as speech acts.
