Tap Root Manuscript Original recording. Neil Diamond Format: Vinyl. This album is Neil's best work. It is an original piece of work. A result of his genius creativity. His break from straight pop rock to a mix of African music was very refreshing to me. I believe this album was also inspiring to other artists expanding what sells records formula music. To what type music would I like to try. I dont know if it was a large selling album hitting the record producers ide of success. But it made a statement.

Tap Root Manuscript is the sixth studio album by Neil Diamond, released in 1970. It was one of the most experimental albums he ever recorded, featuring prominent African sounds and instruments. The album ended up being a commercial success, with a string of top 40 hits. This album predates many Western artists' interest in world music by more than a decade, from Peter Gabriel's 1980's solo albums, to My Life in the Bush of Ghosts (David Byrne with Brian Eno) in 1981, to the Graceland album recorded by Paul Simon in 1986.
