Neil Sedaka Returns!

Carole and I took in the Neil Sedaka show and it was great seeing this musical icon once again. If Neil just decided to stay at home and wait for the mailman he could literally sit down and count the money from the multitude of songs he has written. Neil has always been a charming individual. He recalls sitting down for a Global TV interview with me a few years ago. He made an interesting observation about the British invasion ending his record breaking career as a top rock and roll artist. Years later Neil decided that he would go to England and get even. While performing there Elton John sought him out and told him what a fan he was of Neil’s music. Elton signed him to his Rocket Records label and Neil was reborn on the hit charts with songs like Laughter in the Rain. Many others followed.

Neil was classically trained at Juilliard School in New York, and during his performance here he did a classical version of one of his popular favorites. The man has wonderful piano technique. Be sure to take in his show.
