Hot August Night, my folks album, couldn't have been 10, couldnt stop playing it. Saw him live twice. A truly amazing songwriter and professional. He never sold his soul.
@@1punch_man talent.. hard work and no auto tune.... and realization hes not god just a man a father a singer and a man.. god created him to spread vocal love
20 years after his passing I can still remember my dad listening to Neil Diamond every day. 99% of the time this would be the first song that he would listen to. Thanks for the memories.
I miss my dad so much, everytime I listen to Neil I have great memories of riding around with my dad and we both would sing out loud with the windows down. ❤
My sons brought me 2 tickets for his show @ Madison Square Garden 10 yrs ago as a birthday gift. 2 hours of entertainment non stop. Greatest performer of our time. So sad that now he will not be touring due to Parkinson's. He will be sorely missed but his music will always be here
One of my favourite songs. When Neil performs, its like a revival rally. you go home feeling good and uplifted. Thats the mark of genius and true artiste
I saw him three times. We need SO much more of his style of music and class in this world! He is one of my all-time favorites!!! The kids in this world need to hear him as well.
Saw him in the mid-70s in Birmingham, Alabama...a 3-hour concert, and have never seen another concert by anyone that even came close. The gold standard...still listen to him all the time!
Just got to see my Mother and Father laughing and dancing in the kitchen to this song..... God rest their wonderful shining souls. Thank you for the memories!!
My first concert we Me Neil Diamond I was 16 years old. To day I am 57 year old he is my favorite singer of all time. we need to keep this music alive.
I was lucky to have been taken to these concerts since I was in diapers. .. then I was the crazy 8 month crazy pregnant lady dancing. Three generations loving next these songs!
Me too! 😂. Grew up in the 70’s and missed this Neil Diamond song but then again it was 1969. Love how Tarantino brings back the classics for the younger generations. Video did not disappoint!
I've always loved this song. I appreciate Neil just singing it out with real love and respect for the people who did this kind of work. What an incredible talent! Another New Yorker gifted by God with song.
Neil!! Love & ADORE this Great Superstar! My greatest Childhood Crush! A Beautiful Talented Giant! Keep seeing my Superstar! praying for Neil Diamond!!🙏🏻✝️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😇This is a small sample of his Best???❤️🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️
This brilliant Tune lifting up the Gospel of God ----Get a Holy Bible and read read read carefully in a tru blood bought Church, under an ordained Pstr , in that Church, that Jesus , the Lord of Glory bled for. Please, and for the Glory of our beautiful gracious and merciful maker. Of whom I believe Niel is with and whom I believe I will see again , but Jesus first , the Loving Saviour of my soul, As well, of all who come to Christ, in humility, as an innocent child to a loving Father. ThankyouJesus ❤❤❤
Back when I was a student DJ in college, I made sure I played this song as often as possible...I love songs with soul...that's why I also dig our very own L.A band Blackeyed Pea...some of their music reminds me of this. I challenge you to find the song to which I'm referring.
I liked this song when it first came out, and Once Upon A Time in Hollywood reminded me of it. I'm an atheist, but still find the song entertaining, inspiring and invigorating.
@TheTruthIsRacist what a ridiculously judgemental and ignorant thing to say. Maybe people have seen the film, enjoyed hearing Neil Diamond singing it again (or for the first time even) and have just come here to see him performing it. Nothing more, nothing less, just the pleasure of hearing and seeing Neil Diamond doing one of his great songs.
Hot August Night is the most brilliant album and is in my collection from early 70s, , but yes I'm drawn to listen to this again after watching Once Upon a Time.... can't honestly say I enjoyed the movie though .
Born and raised in SOUTH Georgia I’ve seen these traveling religious shows before and Neil has got it the way it was to a T. It’s really a Christian rock festival where it seems everyone gets the Holy Ghost and shouts it out. I often thought to myself- just don’t pass around the poisonous snakes or duck my head underwater or I’m out of here! lol...
This was a little before my time but my dad was a huge Niel Diamond fan and had him playing the car. He had a good voice and always singing along. I bought a Niel Diamond cassette tape when my parents got divorced as his voice reminded me of my dad. But back the the point. Niel is a flawless artist and always has been. Read his biography on his The Bang Years album. This star didnt have it easy but he rose to the top despite the struggles.
Murray Dickson so how was this concert marketed - did it say it was a TV set for a cable special, or was it just marketed as a concert? Did it seem to be 'stocked' with celebrities and younger people like biographers have noted?
Una canción con un sentido muy religioso. Ambos Cristianos y judíos estamos esperando al Mesías. Con gran respeto hizo el gran Neil Diamond que estemos unidos esperando al Mesías.
On this day in 1969 {March 22nd} Neil Diamond performed "Brother Love's Travelling Salvation Show" on the Dick Clark ABC-TV Saturday-afternoon program, 'American Bandstand'... At the time the song was at #49 on Billboard's Top 100 chart, five weeks later it would peak at #22 {for 2 weeks} and it spent thirteen weeks on the Top 100... It reached #5 on the New Zealand's RIANZ Music chart... Between 1966 and 1988 the Brooklyn, NY native had fifty-seven Top 100 records; thirteen made the Top 10 with three reaching #1, "Crackin' Rosie" for 1 week in 1970, "Song Sung Blue" for 1 week in 1972, and "You Don't Bring Me Flowers", with Barbra Streisand, for 1 week in 1978... He just missed having a fourth #1 record when his "Love On the Rocks" peaked at #2* {for 3 weeks} in 1981... Plus he almost had three more records make the Top 10 when "Play Me", "If You Know What I Mean", and "Yesterday's Songs", all peaked at #11... Neil Leslie Diamond celebrated his 77th birthday two months ago on January 24th {2018}... * The three weeks that "Love On the Rocks" was at #2, the #1 record for those three weeks was "(Just Like) Starting Over" by John Lennon...
I first listened to this album, Hot August Night and I went to the concert and met my husband that night. Two years later we married. We were married for forty eight years and listened to Hot August Night every day. I played it at his funeral. I knew he would like that.
Thanks for the reply and I'm very sorry for your loss... My wife's favorite song is Mr. Diamond's "You Don't Bring Me Flowers"... Oh, my by the way, her name is Joan and come this Nov. 16th we'll be married fifty years... Thanks again...
To my friend Barbara, Hope you're in Heaven with your version of "Mother Loves traveling Salvation Show"..... I will be dancing here in the living room in your Honor!

Still watching, listening and loving him August 2024♥️👍🎼
Oh, to have this caliber of talent again. 😌
None like Mr. Neil Diamond.
Love this version. The energy. The sermon. Just great
Hot August Night, my folks album, couldn't have been 10, couldnt stop playing it. Saw him live twice. A truly amazing songwriter and professional. He never sold his soul.
How does one get this big without selling their soul? Very interesting stuff
@@1punch_man talent.. hard work and no auto tune.... and realization hes not god just a man a father a singer and a man.. god created him to spread vocal love
Neil Diamond just took me to church. Amen. Great song
The best church ever!!! 😂😊
Hes very religious
the hands line... thats what they they for.
Chills through and through.
20 years after his passing I can still remember my dad listening to Neil Diamond every day. 99% of the time this would be the first song that he would listen to. Thanks for the memories.
My father introduced to Mr Neil Diamond when I was very young. Still listening to his 50 years later.
Neil at his finest.UPLIFTING. SPIRITUAL . TALENTED.
great story teller too
I'm so lucky 2 have seen Neil 12 times in concert. Truly 1 of the best.
If not the best
One of the most under rated songs of all time! In my top five songs of all time.
God, this man's voice resonates with the soul. It's enough to convert anyone.
His voice is amazing , he's still a proud Jewish man 💛
Praise the Lord brothers and sisters!
I miss my dad so much, everytime I listen to Neil I have great memories of riding around with my dad and we both would sing out loud with the windows down. ❤
What an unbelievable tribute to gospel preachers and gospel music. !! Unbelievable!
When music was music not that junk that they sing now. Neil Diamond WILL always be the best entertainer.
This song was the turning point when Neil Diamond became a performer instead of a singer
My sons brought me 2 tickets for his show @ Madison Square Garden 10 yrs ago as a birthday gift. 2 hours of entertainment non stop. Greatest performer of our time. So sad that now he will not be touring due to Parkinson's. He will be sorely missed but his music will always be here
One of my favourite songs. When Neil performs, its like a revival rally. you go home feeling good and uplifted. Thats the mark of genius and true artiste
Would love to have seen him live back in the day.. what a voice
I was a teenager when this came out my sister never told our parents how much we loved this song
Neil Diamond is a musical GENIUS
Neil Diamond is the fucking MAN
@@rockscousteau I've loved him FOREVER!!!!!! First heard Hot August Night in my early teens and was converted!!!!
Totally. So glad that he came from my people. Diamond grew up Orthodox like me. Just one more Jewish legacy to the rest of the world. BARUCH HASHEM!
I agree. Love everything he's done but this one makes me smile and chair dance with the best of them
@@rockscousteau I’m late to the party man but I agree! Dude is something else!
I saw him three times. We need SO much more of his style of music and class in this world! He is one of my all-time favorites!!! The kids in this world need to hear him as well.
•💟•
Fire and brimstone preaching to bring back towards home, to all of those lost.
Very well done Neil.
•💟•
Saw him in the mid-70s in Birmingham, Alabama...a 3-hour concert, and have never seen another concert by anyone that even came close. The gold standard...still listen to him all the time!
Me too!!!also in New Orleans....don't really have a word that describes this man!!!!
Saw him twice in Baton Rouge and NOLA. I have never forgotten the experience!
Just got to see my Mother and Father laughing and dancing in the kitchen to this song..... God rest their wonderful shining souls.
Thank you for the memories!!
Saw him live in 1078 in ventura California and got to meet him after
My first concert we Me Neil Diamond I was 16 years old. To day I am 57 year old he is my favorite singer of all time. we need to keep this music alive.
That's about the time I went to see him, wouldn't be Detroit would it?
Neil conquered that stage so hot legend stands you can still fry an egg in the sot he rocked to this day!💎❤️
The bass in this song is SICK. I was banging this waaaaaaay before Tarantino brought it into modern light.
Unbelievable voice ! Only good health Neil.
I was lucky to have been taken to these concerts since I was in diapers. .. then I was the crazy 8 month crazy pregnant lady dancing. Three generations loving next these songs!
Top of his Game here folks!!! Thank you ND
Such passion. Love his band as well. Full of energy. He obviously loves entertaining, singing it out. Amazing entertainer
Tarantino brought me here ✌️👽
fuckin rookie
Me too! 😂. Grew up in the 70’s and missed this Neil Diamond song but then again it was 1969. Love how Tarantino brings back the classics for the younger generations. Video did not disappoint!
Me too!
It matters not how you got here. It only matters that you are here. Welcome
Me toooooooo
I can only hope Neil finds the Lord, cause that's what He's there for...the song is pure genius.
You have to experience this live!!! He's so amazing!!!
wow what an entertainer Neil diamond is just incredible.
My mom passed in 2006. I only wish I would’ve taken her to see Neil. She absolutely loved him.
I don't blame her one bit. He is one cool dude.
Once upon a time... who else?
my favourite Neil Diamond song.
+stubs96 for me it's this one from his up-tempo songs and "Hello Again"
cmon ya turds

Grande niel. Super show!!!
Just what I needed right now.
Thanks Neil
Brian
Those who come watching after once upon a time in Hollywood 😉😉
@TheTruthIsRacist What's wrong with movies or shows introduce old music to new generation?
welcome to the club 40 yr later fukkin rookie
@@JamesBrown-pp3bn Do you guys rather this music be buried and forgotten in time?
I liked this song when it first came out, and Once Upon A Time in Hollywood reminded me of it. I'm an atheist, but still find the song entertaining, inspiring and invigorating.

This is my absolute favorite Neil Diamond song.
Without a doubt absolutely brilliant song yea I’m with you nice lady . I saw him in 1972 at well , you know where .
I saw him in concert back in the 1990's, what an incredible entertainer. Personally, this is his best song.
Professional! Doesn't get any better.
Watching this on a hot August night.
brings back memories growing up in Culver City California still live here late 60s listening to AM radio
THE VERY BEST
This is what happens when Neil diamond and one gram of good coke come together... Love you Neil
Haha! Really?
Hot August Night is the most brilliant album and is in my collection from early 70s, , but yes I'm drawn to listen to this again after watching Once Upon a Time.... can't honestly say I enjoyed the movie though .
WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS RIGHT NOW 2020, 2021 ...AMEN SELAH
One of my favorites of Neil Diamond.
Love it! He jumps with passion.
Wildly entertaining. Yes to Neil!
Once again, Neil is gonna make a bundle from one of his 40 year old songs. I remember this when I was a boy. Great stuff.
Neil Diamond brought me here
Love this!! Any song by Neil Diamond is shear Mastery.
Amen!
Sheer
best of Diamond
agreed him and Paul Simon
at least when he is being recorded Live. ;)

Rumble625 LOL 😂 😂😂😂
My late mother-in-law grew up in Waycross, GA, and talked about those tent meetings.
This was my closing song at Majerles in downtown Phoenix in the early 2000's
Thank you AJ for having this in the CD player lo
take his hand that is what he is there for.
Amen Kat B
I'd love to see Neil perform this song at a black church.
Yes!! With the full choir singing with him! Like you're in heaven already!!!!
@@laurieanncox7844 Absolutely.
My favorite christian song.
My favorite version. Neil says we help others and god helps us... God saves
Neil
The Best forever.

Neil Diamond..... AWESOME!!!!
Watching Golden Globes and had to hear more . . ,
Oh my,one the most incredible concert's I've ever seen!!!! Mr Neil Diamond!!!!
I'm so old...
Ain’t nothing like the original Jewish Elvis. Lyrical genius!!
I was lucky enough to be at this show.
You might get a look at the back of my head. (I had hair in those days.) Hallelujah Brother!!!!
Murray Dickson so how was this concert marketed - did it say it was a TV set for a cable special, or was it just marketed as a concert? Did it seem to be 'stocked' with celebrities and younger people like biographers have noted?
God bless ya we love you
I have this t.v. special on dvd. Excellent show. Find it interesting that his drummer here is Ronny Tutt, who had previously worked with Elvis.
Yeah I went to one of his concerts years ago, was absolutely amazing.
One of thee all time great JAMS!
Lil, Gaye and myself went to his last concert in Winnipeg..I t was wonderful...I am a huge fan...
i play what i like if you don't hit the the faking key
