NEIL WITH THE SHEPHERDS

Heck no, it ain’t too early. And with the new Broadway musical A Beautiful Noise just about to spring to life, it seems that we can’t get enough of the legendary singer/songwriter Neil Diamond. The terrific Original Cast Album is out and it’s awesome. Now also available is A Neil Diamond Christmas, a newly remastered set specially curated by the artist from his 4 best-selling Christmas albums. These acclaimed recordings feature Neil originals and inventive arrangements of traditional songs, spotlighting his trademark sound in a holiday setting. It also features a new mix of “O Holy Night” (the deluxe 2 CD set includes 6 bonus tracks). The tracks Neil has personally selected for this compilation  all originally  appeared on September 1992’s  The Christmas  Album,  October 1994’s  The Christmas  Album Volume II, October 2009’s  A  Cherry  Cherry  Christmas,  and November 2016’s  Acoustic Christmas.

A  Neil Diamond Christmas  appears in four physical configurations: 2LP 180-gram black vinyl,  an exclusive, limited-edition gold opaque 2LP 180-gram vinyl, 2CD,  and 1CD.  All of the tracks on  A  Neil Diamond Christmas  have been newly remastered under the  artist’s direction by Neil’s longtime engineer, Bernie Becker.  Additionally, Neil  and Bernie created  a  stunning new mix of “O Holy Night,” originally released on  The Christmas  Album.
