This is one of Neil Diamond's best live performances...in fact
it it the Best !!...From The Greek Theatre In Los Angeles....containing
most of his hits up to 1972 because that's when it was recorded August
24th to be exact.. on a Hot Sultry Summer Night !! The first track
"Prologue" is a great one it builds up an atmosphere before Neil
actually appears and starts to sing....I have recorded them as complete
Sides because there is not much gaps between tracks....It is a double
L/P so there is 4 sides !!
Also No "Zippy" Track !!
Side 1. Side 2.

Another helping of "James Last"....to me this one seems to lack the "Oomph" that the Orchestra normally has !!!...maybe its all slow tunes and not a "Swing" in sight !!!
1. Lara's Theme
2. A Man And A Woman
3. Games That Lovers Play
4. This Is my Song

6. Close Your Eyes

Wikipedia is great when you don't know much about what you want to say !!
The Manhattan Transfer is an American a cappella, jazz fusion/pop music group founded in 1969 in New York City and still active in the 2010s. There have been two editions of the group, with Tim Hauser being the only person to be part of both. The first group consisted of Hauser, Erin Dickins, Marty Nelson, Pat Rosalia and Gene Pistilli. The second version of the group, formed in 1972, consisted of Hauser, Alan Paul, Janis Siegel and Laurel Massé. In 1979, after Massé was badly injured in a car accident, she was replaced by Cheryl Bentyne. The group's long-time pianist, Yaron Gershovsky, accompanied the group on tour and served as music director. Trist Curless from the Los Angeles a cappella group m-pact became a permanent member in October 2014 following Hauser's death.[2]

3. The Lovers
4. Fake
5. Criticize

06. Mountains of Mourne.mp3
If people are having trouble with the "Zippyshare" player when they click on it to play the track...please let me know......cheers....Luigi..

Dipping our toes into the "West End" and coming up with this one !!..One show that I have not heard of !!..so off now to "Google" it !!....thanking "Bob" in Belgium for this one !
In a story based on the real-life relationship of Hamlisch and Sager, a wisecracking composer finds a new, offbeat lyricist, but initially the match is not one made in heaven. The two undergo a series of trials and overcome a number of hurdles before finding true love by the final curtain.
The musical opened in the West End on October 1, 1980 at the Shaftesbury Theatre with Tom Conti and Gemma Craven, [4] who won a 1980 Laurence Olivier Award for Actress of the Year in a Musical.[5] According to the history of the Shaftesbury Theatre, "The most successful production during this time was the musical They're Playing Our Song (1980), starring Tom Conti and Gemma Craven, which ran for nearly two years.

Re-Post Requested By Xavier
This L/P is one of the best of The Lettermen that I
have....That's what I think anyway... maybe some of you out there might
disagree... leave a comment below if you do !!!.....It contains one of
my favourite tracks...the "Medley" of "Going Out Of My Head & Can't
Take My Eyes Off You" which is the last track...In England the record
company issued it as a single and I believe it was a "Hit".....Don't
know whether it was a Hit Single anywhere else...be interesting to find
out so if anybody can enlighten me be pleased to hear about it !!......I
have the single as well and although it is the same recording....To me
it sounds better than on the L/P which is unusual because usually it's
the other way around !!......I'm going to find it soon and post it on
here so you can hear the difference and see if you
agree.....
1. Never My Love
2. Anyone Who Had A Heart
3. Holly
