Description
Ultra rare 45 rpm of Neil Diamond's 1st single. He signed with Columbia Records as a solo performer in 1962. Columbia released the single "At Night" b/w "Clown Town" in July of 1963. Billboard gave an excellent review to "Clown Town" in their July 13th 1963 issue, predicting it would be a hit. Despite a tour of radio stations, the single failed to chart. Sales and top 40 airplay were disappointing and Columbia dropped him from the label shortly thereafter. and he was back to writing songs on an upright piano above the Birdland Club in New York City. He didn't find success as a solo artist until 1966 with the song "Solitary Man" on Bang Records....This rare 45 rpm single comes with a company sleeve, and new protective sleeve as well. SEE PHOTOS.
