| Over at http://members.aol.com/Waucoba4/music/solitaryman.html I've
placed a link to my solo, acoustic, instrumental version of that
classic composition by Neil Diamond, "Solitary Man;" it's in 128kbps
MP3 format, by the way. Interestingly enough, the song was essentially
a commerical flop in the US when Diamond first released "Solitary Man"
in 1966--it reached only #55 on the US Billboard charts that year (Top
40 in the UK--I believe...somebody will correct me if I'm wrong, I
trust...). In the intervening years, "Solitary Man" has certainly
become one of Diamond's best-known--and best-liked--musical
compositions. And, of course, in May 2004, the Finnish goth group
H.I.M. went Top 10 in the UK with their cover of Diamond's "Solitary
Man."
