Yes correct Neil Diamond was only there because Robbie was doing him a favour. Have also heard that when ND finished his set, as he was going off stage he quipped to Bob Dylan "Beat that!" To which Bob replied "What do you want me to do? Go out there and fall asleep?"

Neil Diamond - Hot August Night (only the first "People in the trees" version, ca 1974).

I still want to look like that someday....:-)

@initforthemusic , Ha, yup, I had heard that before! Diamond seemed SO out of place in that group of artists, pure showbiz schmaltz. I view him being there as Robbie doing not Neil, but himself a favour, bringing attention to Diamond in hopes the album he was producing for him at that time would therefore sell more copies. I think it sank without a trace.

Behind the scenes, the rehearsals for the show proved to be running long, so Robbie asked Levon to tell Muddy he was being cut from the lineup. Levon refused, telling Robbie if Muddy didn't perform, neither did he. My man!
