Remarkably Home Before Dark is the first US chart topping album of Neil Diamond's forty year career. It appears to repeat the formula behind 2006's acclaimed 12 Songs--relatively understated arrangements and a subtle Rick Rubin production. But Diamond, though sixty-seven years old and the oldest recipient of a Number One so far, is no Johnny Cash, turning his unique voice to some well chosen contemporary material. Instead Home Before Dark is a collection of new Diamond songs, and though they might not match the boomers in his back catalogue they are hardly stripped back. These are songs designed to fill large venues alongside the showstoppers in Diamond's still energetic live show. "Pretty Amazing Grace" is in the great tradition of Diamond songs that defy their corniness with sheer catchiness, as is "One More Bite of the Apple" while "Don't Go There" features bracing backing vocals and a delightfully dated wobbly guitar hook. The duet with Natalie Maines, "Another Day (That Time Forgot)", would fit comfortably on American country radio while "The Power of Two" sounds like another hit in waiting. In fact this is more a conventional Diamond collection than a Rick Rubin production, dominated by lightly understated country rock arrangements played by a crack team including Smokey Hormel, Heartbreakers Benmont Tench and Mike Campbell and the usually experimental Matt Sweeney. This is a charming and consistently solid set, though Home Before Dark does lack the unexpected intensity that made 12 Songs stand out so. -—Steve Jelbert

 Thorougly Enjoyable! August 7, 2008
Jacque F. Dockery (Sun Valley, NV United States)
I never understood until recently that as our bodies age, our hearts remain an age that was our happiest in our youth yet with all the benefits of the experiences of our journey. This has been proven now by an aging, yet timeless musical artist. Thank you Neil for sharing your heart once again. You obviously still have much to share.
Great!!!!! August 5, 2008

Neil Diamond has evolved over the years, and is very good at what he writes and sings. I like his honesty, and you gotta love his voice.
Love it! July 27, 2008

I absolutely love this music. Do I have the technical vocabulary to tell you why? NO. I do have the emotion though and I want to tell you to buy this CD. It is excellent. Love it!!!
