Can't Live Without It

Review Score: (10/10)
I had this album when it first came out but I some how lost it (I think someone who wouldn't admit they were a fan stole it). Some albums come and go, but I have been searching for this one for a long time. My mom got me hooked when I was a kid and Neil Diamond was one of the first concerts I ever went to. My mom wants this album too. I know every song by heart now and there is nothing more soothing than to listen to it when I am stressed out. This is a must have album as far as I am concerned. If you like some of his songs, this is the CD to get you hooked on the rest. As far as the live songs go, his true fans will recognize the powerful concert sounds of the older performances.
