Neil Daimond turns 69 today. Daimond is the Jeff Bridges of the music world. Under appreciated and often forgotten by the so called experts, all he has done is sold over 100 million records, written hit songs, and sold out every venue he has found worthy of setting foot in. How is it that ZZ Top, The Bee Gees, and The Talking Heads are enshrined in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but The Daimond is not? I guess Bill Murray put it perfectly in "What About Bob" when he said that there are two kinds of people in this world, those who love Neil Daimond and those who hate him. I'm not ashamed to yell out that I love Neil Daimond, sequins and all.
Happy Birthday Neil.
