Here’s another song by the legendary Rock and Roll Hall of Fame songwriter Neil Diamond. What a massive catalog of great music he has. It’s big enough to make me forget all about “H****light” and “You Don’t B***g Me Fl**ers Anymore.” Nope, don’t like his sappy stuff. That’s okay: this isn’t! Here’s today’s diamond tune from Mr. Diamond.
#8: Shilo
YEAH, BABY!!!
Even before I started listening to rock and roll in 1974 I liked this song. (My parents managed an “antiques store” [think Sanford and Son] and I found the album amid the piles of stuff there.) This is one of those that I love to turn up good and loud.
I think I’ll do that right now!
Shilo
Written by Neil Diamond
Released as a single, 1967
