| Description: | Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing. The Jazz Singer is an album by Neil Diamond which served as the soundtrack album to the 1980 remake of the film The Jazz Singer. The soundtrack was released in November 1980 originally on Capitol Records, instead of his then-usual Columbia Records, because the film was produced by EMI Films, owned by the parent company of the label for which the soundtrack was released. The soundtrack was a huge success and became Neil Diamond's biggest selling album in the United States, selling over five million copies and reaching #3 on the pop albums chart. This would mark the second time a Neil Diamond soundtrack outperformed the movie it came from (after Jonathan Livingston Seagull). Three of the songs from the album became Top 10 pop singles, with "Love on the Rocks", "Hello Again" and "America" reaching #2, #6, and #8 respectively."The Jazz Singer" is a classic Neil Diamond soundtrack album, here presented as a high-quality LP that brings the drama and emotion of the film into the listening room. As the musical backbone to the 1980 movie of the same name, this record blends heartfelt ballads with radio-ready pop and elements of soft rock, showcasing Neil Diamond's unmistakable voice and songwriting craft. The LP format underlines the cinematic arc of the songs: from intimate, reflective moments to powerful, uplifting anthems, perfect for listeners who appreciate story-driven albums with strong melodies and rich arrangements.
Neil Diamond is one of the most successful singer-songwriters in popular music, known for timeless hits such as "Sweet Caroline", "Cracklin' Rosie" and "Song Sung Blue". Across his long career he has filled stadiums worldwide, sold tens of millions of records and received numerous awards and honours for his contribution to pop and rock music. His warm baritone, emotional delivery and gift for memorable hooks have made him a constant presence on international charts for decades, and "The Jazz Singer" stands as a key work in his discography, uniting his songwriting with the narrative power of cinema.
The LP is manufactured by Capitol, a long-established label that has shaped popular music history for generations. As part of a major international music group, Capitol is renowned for its broad, high-quality catalogue covering pop, rock, jazz and more, as well as for its iconic recording studios and attention to sound quality and presentation.

This edition of "The Jazz Singer" is ideal for fans of Neil Diamond, for collectors of classic soundtrack albums, and for anyone who wants to experience this emotionally charged music in an analogue format. The LP's sequencing guides the listener through the story's emotional highs and lows, making it a rewarding, cohesive album rather than just a collection of individual songs. Whether rediscovering the music or encountering it for the first time, this vinyl version highlights the warmth, dynamics and depth that have made the soundtrack enduringly popular. |
