    Southside does this song regularly- still--- at his shows .

    I know there are many boots around that have Bruce and SSJohnny covering this together, as well as the rare Bruce only versions also. :)

  • The Fever is on 18 tracks, one of two things bruce has done that I think knock is credibility (the other being the "American Land Edition" Why couldn't he have just released an EP?)

    Hey, thanks for that.

    Winterland Dec. 15th. Is there a complete boot of that? I *might* actually have that on another computer downloaded a few years ago - the name sounds SO familiar. The one I'm thinking of has bruce doing Santa Claus is coming to town and a real funny story before it I think.

    You know, I *love* Patti Smith, but I always liked the Bruce version of Because the Night better.

    the really early solo acoustic Springsteen is incredible. songs like "Song for Orphans", "Arabian Nights", "Two Hearts In True Waltz Time", "Cowboys of the Sea", "Ballad of the Self-Loading Pistol", etc are amazing to say the least.

    Greetings From Asbury Park, NJ is essential. great songs like Blinded By The Light, Growin' UP, Lost In The Flood, For You, Spirit In The Night, Saint In The City.... everything.. timeless songs although the production is thin, the performances are outstanding.

    08/15/1975 – The Bottom Line, New York, NY (A “TOP 55” SHOW)
    Part 1 http://www.megaupload.com/?d=EW5IOHY3
    Part 2 http://www.megaupload.com/?d=N7JDG0J1
    Set List: 10th Ave Freeze Out / Spirit In The Night / And Then She Kissed Me / Growin' Up / Saint In The City / E St Shuffle / Everytime That You Walk In The Room / She's The One / Born To Run / Kitty'S Back / Thunder Road / Rosalita / 4th Of July Asbury Park (Sandy) / Quarter To Three
    Notes: Broadcast on WNEW-FM in New York, NY, this show possibly represents the beginning of modern Bruce. Bruce had just completed the marathon recording sessions for Born to Run and the tour was ready to start. After a few warm-up gigs, the band hit the Big Apple and began their quest for super-stardom. Unfortunately, the hype started here as well, which culminated in the simultaneous cover stories on Newsweek and Time in October 1975. This show can be nominated as being among the best ever. The radio broadcast led to one of the first vinyl bootlegs back in 1976 called "The Great White Boss" (an allusion to the first bootleg ever, "The Great White Hope" of early Dylan demos). The show was later released on the CD "Live at The Bottom Line." In mid-2004, a fan was able to locate recording of the entire broadcast, DJ chatter and all, and "released" a more complete version called "The Way It Was." The bootleg label Godfather Records used that new complete recording as the source for their own "Punk Meets the Godfather."

    I love Bruce!!! I had his first greatest hits and then got The Rising. Then I got the Essential Springsteen (3 cd set).

    Last year Sirius satelitte radio had an all Bruce station to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Born to Run. I fell in love with his catalog over the 3 months that they had that going. I wish they still had the all Boss station.

    The Rising is one of my favorite albums period.

    it is a total masterpiece...right up there with the best of the best

    Anyway, I'm definitely going to give a listen to Darkness on the Edge of Town eventually, but I have to let Born to Run sink in fully before I do that. :)

    Thoughts?[/quote]
    BTR is one of my fave records of all time....
    "Darkness" is a great record. Esp. the title track & if you like "Jungleland", you'll love "Something in the Night" from that record. "Racing in the Streets" is a really great song too.....

    Enjoy! His music was a really good friend to me when I first left home for the West coast....

    P.S. - I saw Bruce in concert way back in '85 - a nearly 3 and a half hour show & he kicked my ass - I love to dance but after that show, I was exhausted!! And so was everyone else there...He's a rock n roll legend at this point & its really great to see some younger people appreciating his music.
