Neil Diamond’s first #1 hit- 1970 was a big year for him racking up 5 Top 40 hits and establishing him as a star. The back-up band on this was the famous group of LA musicians known as The Wrecking Crew- and on drums -again with another one of his #1 hits he played on- Hal Blaine.
When it comes to songs about red wine, Diamond ruled!
The Hanukkah Hunk!
A good hit by Neil.
