Neil Diamond Alert

[Caran]

Programme on BBC4 at 12.15 am, Neil Diamond, radio 2 electric prom. Don't know what it is but he is playing a lot of oldies.
I know some folks on here enjoy his music.

Thanks for that alert I usually listen to radio 4 after midnight, I now know to tune into radio4 extra, thank you.

[magicmick]

I should have said thank you Caran, sorry.

[Caran]

Magicmick I meant BBC4 television.

He was great 30 years ago but now he's too old. I saw his tour/come-back last year? and thought it was dire, he was half talking shouting and trying to sing. If they play his old recordings it should be OK.

[magicmick]

Of course I keep forgetting BBC have all these channels, funny how the mind works I am more of a radio man after midnight.

>>>If they play his old recordings it should be OK

It's his old songs but from a 2010 performance:

Thanks for that Chris. It should be okay being 5 years old.
I agree AOG he is not as good as he used to be.

[askyourgran]

Yes should be good listening to his older recordings.

## I agree AOG he is not as good as he used to be. ##

Most of them are not as good anymore Caran as they get older, It must be something in them, that wont let go, or to much ego IMO.

I don't think ND is skint!

[Caran]

Enjoyed most of it. Didn't see why he brought on other people though. Lulu wasn't bad but didn't think much of Amy McDonald.

[Caran]

His Sweet Caroline was brilliant.
