Title: Win "Hot August Night 40th Anniversary" CDs - Brisbane 4KQ Post by: culturebird on Monday 06 August 2012, 07:18:16 am This week in 4KQ’s Online Freebies you could win a copy of Neil Diamond’s Hot August Night 40th Anniversary deluxe edition. Arguably one of the greatest live albums ever recorded, this re-mastered edition features all his hits plus unreleased recordings – out now.
Covering an even greater array on this re-mastered edition, featuring signature hits and fan favourites as well as three previously unreleased recordings, plus all his stage banter and band introductions unearthed from the archives of 40 years ago, making this a complete aural experience capturing that magical night. The unreleased material includes “A Modern Day Version Of Love” where Diamond shows off all of his skills as a masterful vocalist with this gorgeous rendition of his 1968 chestnut. The Randy Newman-penned “I Think It’s Going To Rain Today “ is a genteel ballad in which Diamond displays his humanity, almost speaking the soft words against the backdrop of a sparse, but theatrical arrangement. And finally there’s “Gitchy Goomy,” which he introduces as a philosophy lesson to a child learning about life. http://www.4kq.com.au/win/online-freebies-neil-diamond-cd |
