LOS ANGELES — Neil Diamond is so excited about his two latest projects, it’s like he has twins on the way.
They’re due Friday, when Diamond’s concert DVD, “Hot August Night/NYC,” lands in Wal-Mart stores and a companion hour-long TV special airs nationally on CBS. (In Denver, it will air at 11:35 p.m. Saturday because of Friday’s Broncos game.)
“Basically I feel like an expectant father and I’m just nervously sitting around the waiting room hoping that the baby is healthy and happy,” the 68-year-old singer said.
The DVD, filmed during his performance at Madison Square Garden last summer, features more than two dozen songs, including classics such as “Sweet Caroline” and “Love on the Rocks.”
The television special includes excerpts from the DVD and footage from Diamond’s recent trip home.
“This is my first TV special in over 20 years, so I feel my heart beating a little faster. It’s exciting,” Diamond said. The Associated Press
