Real Neil

Real Neil

2012 album from the veteran singer/songwriter. The Real Neil is a collection of new songs with a few Sedaka classics. 'The most challenging task for a songwriter is to write a simple tune but still bring an emotional feeling to it", says Neil. " After 60 years of writing, I am very proud of these new songs. This is my first acoustic album. Piano and voice, the pure form of the song, just the way I write them. The songs are very personal and come from my soul. It's the culmination of all the years of writing. No frills. No production gimmicks." the album closes with classically trained Neil's first piano concerto 'Manhattan Intermezzo', recorded with the London Philharmonic Orchestra at Air Studios in London.
