Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show

"Hot August Night 2" is filled with many of his "classics," most of which he still does in concert today.
I thought this was an absolutely fantastic concert of some wonderful old (and a couple of new -- well, new for 1987) songs.
Can people think he's not energetic in this recording?
I think he sounds wound up and excited the whole way through.
Some have remarked that he sings "off key" in a few songs, but all he really does is slip into a harmony line instead of a melody line.
still sounds good, just a little different from the original studio recording of the songs, and is a lot different from singing "off key."
Diamond is so charged up with energy for "Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show," it comes off very well. Does "Brother Love" sound like the studio recording?
No. But wow, does it sound good!
Neil Diamond leaves out some of his older hits (e.g., Solitary man, Shilo, Girl You'll Be a Woman, Play Me), but he includes some more recent ones that weren't written yet for "Hot August Night 1" (such as America, Forever in Blue Jeans, You Don't Bring Me Flowers).
Also, the new songs ("Back in L.A." and "I Dreamed a Dream" from the Les Miserables musical) sound fantastic!
