In 1980 Sol was offered his dream job, working as the rabbinical consultant on the Neil Diamond's new movie, The Jazz Singer. In the film Diamond plays a conflicted cantor who leaves his family and religious responsibilities and sets out on the road to find fame and fortune in the music business. What with the obvious similarities between Sol's life and Diamond's character, a fast friendship was formed. After three weeks holed up in a penthouse suite at the Sands Hotel in Las Vegas, Diamond and Blazowitz emerged with an entire rewrite of the script that survived almost completely intact as the Jazz Singer movie you now know and love. Again, despite his best efforts, every scene Sol wrote himself into was taken out and he did not appear in the film.

"The producers felt the Rabbi's character was actually too strong and that it would upstage Diamond," says an industry insider.

Despite the set back the Rabbi continued to unconditionally support Diamond even though many of his friends felt that it was secretly the superstar's ego and not the producers that kept Sol out of the movie. To this day, the singer/songwriter sites the Rabbi for "putting his career back on track" and bringing him closer to God. In just a few years that steadfast belief in Diamond would prove to be the best move of Sol's career.
