  • "Red Red Wine" is a song written, performed and originally recorded by American singer Neil Diamond in 1967, included on Neil's second studio album, Just for You. The lyrics are sung from the perspective of someone who finds drinking red wine the only way to forget his woes. When Neil left the Bang Records label in 1968, Bang continued to release Neil Diamond singles, often adding newly recorded instruments and background vocals to album tracks from the two Neil Diamond albums that Bang had issued. For the "Red Red Wine" single, Bang added a background choir without Neil's involvement or permission. Diamond's version reached number sixty-two on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1968. The original album version was released on Diamond's The Greatest Hits (1966–92) but the 1968 single version has never been issued on a vinyl album or CD. The song was covered by several artists, shortly after Diamond's recording was released. Tony Tribe covered the song in 1969 in a reggae-influenced style. UB40 recorded it in 1983 in a lighter reggae style; a version which topped the Billboard Hot 100 and the UK Singles Chart. Diamond later performed a UB40-inspired version of the song on tour. Greg Page covers this song on his album, Greg Page - Let It Be Me.
