Neil Diamond was born on 24 January, 1941, in Brooklyn, New York. He started writing songs when still at school and made his name as a singer in 1966, with the release of "Cherry Cherry." Neil Diamond recorded the original version of his self-penned "And The Grass Won't Pay No Mind" song in the American Studios in Memphis, probably in January 1969.
Diamond's version of "And The Grass Won't Pay No Mind" had not yet been released when Elvis recorded the number in the very same American Stusios in the early hours of the morning of 18 February. It was, however, eventually released prior to Elvis's version on Diamond's "Brother Love's Travelling Salvation Show" LP.
Elvis also recorded Neil Diamond's "Sweet Caroline."
