Neil Diamond - Rainbow (MCA-2103)

Artist: Neil Diamond
Title: Rainbow
Catalog #: MCA-2103
Label: MCA Records
Year: 1973
Format: LP
Condition: VG+

A children's album in concept but a Diamond record in execution, Rainbow finds Neil Diamond applying his considerable melodic gift to family-oriented material without condescending to either audience. Released in 1973 during a period of sustained commercial dominance, it includes his reading of Morningside and the whimsical Shilo-adjacent songwriting that his fanbase had come to expect. A charming and underappreciated corner of his MCA catalog. This VG+ copy plays cleanly — a gentle find for the completist Diamond collector or anyone building out a family music section with genuine pedigree.
