Rating: - The yardstick by which.........................
For anyone who has never heard this album before and is looking for something that will leave them spellbound and completely exhausted of all emotions, I really envy you. For you, unlike the millions who already own this, still have the joy of listening to something that is really unique, for the very first time. Rarely can a combination of songs, performer and audience have come together so comprehensively as one, in such an emotionally charged package. From classic love songs to fever pitched ... Read More
Rating: - Simply One Of The Best Live Albums Of All Time
This album is pure entertainment. It's as simple as that. Artists' reputations are made in live performance; this album illustrates - no - PROVES - that Neil Diamond is one of America's premier live performers. The sheer quality of the music shines like a beacon. And that voice is just unmistakable. This is one of the best live albums in the music business. Never mind diamond, this is pure gold!

Rating: - Best Live Album Ever
Since the age of 5 when my dad bought this album on vinyl I have been a Neil Diamond fan. I'm not so fussed about his more recent stuff (post The Jazz Singer) but Hot August Night has to be the most outstanding live performances ever recorded. An amazing singer songwriter, outstanding music, lyrics, band, orchestra - and what a voice!
I'm 33 years of age and I don't think this album will ever be surpassed in my lifetime.
Rating: - What's the difference?
As a 26 year old many people find it unusual that I am a Neil Diamond fan!? However I can honestly say that since the age of probably six I have always been so.
The album which I battered on my fathers' turn table which first captured my attention at such an early age was 'Hot August Night'
It is safe for me to say that this is probably mr. Diamonds best ever live performance however, as the title suggests, he doesn't change. I went to see Neil Diamond at the Birmingham NEC Arena ... Read More
