Diamond selected the songs for Neil Diamond 50. Its tracks range from the 1966 album The Feel of Neil Diamond to 2014's Melody Road. A three-disc set with liner notes by David Fricke, it includes songs that Rolling Stone described as "staples in the American pop songbook".[3]
A 50th Anniversary World Tour coincided with the release of the box. It began on April 7, 2017, in Fresno, California.[4]
