Description
After three decades of unparalleled popularity, Neil Diamond is still at it, challenging himself with every venture, and never more so than with his masterful album Tennessee Moon. Recorded entirely in Nashville, the album teamed Neil with executive producer Bob Gaudio, producers Don Cook, Paul Worley, and James Stroud/Richard Landis, and such esteemed guest artists as Waylon Jennings, Chet Atkins and the Mavericks' Raul Malo. Featuring eighteen original songs co-written by Diamond and a host of the city's top songwriting talent, Tennessee Moon is unquestionably one of the singer's most exhilarating albums in years. Tennessee Moon is a long-awaited treat for his many fans around the world. That it marks a return to the acoustic rock sound of such groundbreaking Diamond classics as "Cherry, Cherry" and "Solitary Man" makes the release a special event in pop music history. To hammer home the point, the album includes a sensational remake of Neil's 1967 hit, "Kentucky Woman." Diamond himself, who recorded several early hits in Memphis, such as "Sweet Caroline," "Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show," and "Holly Holy," has long expressed a desire to return to Tennessee and record an album with the cream of Nashville's formidable musicians, and says the making of Tennessee Moon is "the fulfillment of a dream."
