Having achieved some level of commercial success writing
songs for other artists Neil Diamond recorded Solitary Man and released it on
Bang Records in early 1966. By the time
mid-summer rolled-around this tune had became a minor hit as it rose to #55 on the
U.S. pop singles chart. It was Diamond’s
first hit and launched a song-writing, recording and performing career.
Colloquially-known
as a pretty good break-up song too.
Nice cover by Chris Isaak....
