I'm a big Nat King Cole fan, myself. When it comes to music, I'm oldschool. I think pop music since the early 1980s is astonishingly bad - right at about the time the industry ran Neil Diamond off the radio. :(

I like most music up to 1988/89, except rap and hip/hop. BTW, the links to the Soviet Ghetto Blasters on that page are broken, oh well......

Neal Diamond is pretty cool. Going to switch to Art Bell if he is on, after this tune from the Electric Light Orchestra is done. B-)

I;ve seen Mr Diamond in concert many times and the only time he failed to please was at The staples Center last October. On a scale of 1 to 100, he is usually a 90+. He was a 60 that night - starting to show stronger signs of slowing down, and some strange selections of songs that really alienated the crowd (he did this JL Seagull medley and a psychotic song about the band for what seemed to be 40 minutes).

Still, Neil Diamond rules it!
